This card is for the final sketch at the Hero Arts Blog features Basic Grey Two Scoops papers. They have extended the deadline to upload cards to December 28th, so check it out. Also, remember you still have until midnight on December 20th to upload your 'no designer paper' creation for the Caardvarks challenge for a chance to win $55 worth of Core'dinations Cardstock. You can check out the Flickr Gallery here.
I'm not a real planner when it comes to card making. Most of the time I really don't have a vision of how the finished card is going to turn out when I begin ... hence the rather busy feel of this design. I like how all of the patterns work together, but if I did it again, I might add a bit more white space. However, it will be perfect for the intended recipient. The Hero Arts Sweet and Simple Pattern sentimentwas stamped in Colorbox Rouge and clear embossed. The Enjoy Your Birthday was stamped in Chestnut Roan and clear embossed. I finished with two sizes of Hero Arts clear adhesive gemstones.
You have such a great knack for the perfect stack when it comes to layering colors that are great together!! Wonderful card!
