This came to me as I fell asleep last night - I couldn't wait to get up and make this card for Muse #100 inspired by Michele's card
and for LIM206 - One-Layered, New Beginnings (this will be the card I use for my sister's wedding next month) and for Virginia's View #11 (my first time playing, finally!) Clean Slate.
To begin, I scored my card and then masked the inside panel before sponging it with Worn Lipstick, Festive Berries and Seedless Preserves (I was actually with Virginia when I bought this colour of distress ink!). I left it to dry.
Then I cut a simple heart from the front, outlined it in Stardust Stickles. Done.
The song (for the Muse Challenge) is "Hole-Hearted" by Extreme. And I think it works for their other hit song "More than Words", in a weird way.
I hope you'll play along with us at Muse this week - it's Michele's first week as our newest DT member, it's our 100th challenge and it's our second anniverary! We've even got prizes for 5 random participants! Hope to see you there before the deadline on Monday at 8 am EST!
Cas perfection and the touch of stickles inspired x

ReplyDeleteAbsolutely AMAZING...
ReplyDeleteSure wish CARD ideas came to me while I ma falling asleep...(never happens)..I did not get a "creative" BRAIN....But I so admire those who did!
Like YOU! I always go to VOTE for YOUR cards...because they are best..and then I realize -- I can't, because it's YOURS! You ROCK!
This is why you're awesome - I would have just slapped some coloured cardstock on the inside of my card but you ink it with not one but three colours! Clean and gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteSimple and beautiful!!! Or simply beautiful!!!
