Fly Free

Yes, it's another challenge card that I made last weekend for Stampin' Out Alzheimers. It wasn't a sketch challenge, so I actually came up with this card layout by myself! :-) The challenge, sponsored by Papermakeup Stamps, was to use a winged image. I don't have any PMS stamps yet (mine are on order), so I used this cute LeAnn Ellis stamp that I'd bought from FunkyKits a while ago. It was nice to finally make a card with this image!


It's a pretty simple layout but it's probably my favorite card that I made last weekend. (And, no Diana, not just because it is PINK, lol!) I really like simpler, more basic card layouts. They're easier to work with (easier on the eye, I think) and it's more fun to find embellishments to jazz it up.

You're SO SO right!! When you try to work with a sketch that has like 415 pieces of patterned paper, it's hard to get the right mix with different papers and colors and patterns and embellishments. It all gets so complicated!!
Simple is BEAUTIFUL!! And this card is just awesome.
