Using up some Art…

today I decided to use a stamped image from a while back. The ladies that came to my brayer classes may recognize this as my “practice” piece. Well it was so pretty, it needed to be made into a card!

Please excuse the HUGE size here, but with it being a tall card, it wouldn’t look right if I kept it smaller.

The top of the card was brayered in Really Rust, and since we don’t have this color anymore, I went over it in… Cajun Craze :-) It worked great! Colors used: Cajun Craze, Chocolate Chip, So Saffron, Whisper White. The greeting from “Word Play” was stamped in Basic Black. The edges were sponged in Chocolate Chip…

I’ve added ribbon and some pretty pearls… and Voila – Done!

So go and dig through your “for later” pile and make a quick card too!
