Happy Monday! Here's a one layer card I made for the new sketch challenge over at the STAMPlorations blog. For the next couple of weeks, we're playing with this fun sketch:
Instead of using layers of paper or die-cuts (which isn't really my style), I went with layers of images and colors to create this grunge-yet-still-CAS one layer card. I stamped the various mixed media elements (from Mixed Media Grunge) in HA inks. I balanced the sentiment with the distressed frame (both from Blossom Overture), and the frame also works to nicely draw the eye to the grunge floral image on the left. The collage look gives this card dimension even though it's just one layer.
Check out how the rest of the STAMPlorations girls interpreted the sketch here. We're also joined by 3 awesome cardmakers: Robyn, Kathy, and Stephanie. And we hope to see your take on the sketch too!
I'm linking my card to these fun challenges:

Thanks for stopping by! Don't forget to smile :o)
