You are Amazing

``

I recently challenged my downline team to create a card with circles. It was their choice of design, but it had to include circles.   So to play along with the challenge, I also created a circle card.  I then took a picture and watermarked my card, which can prove to be a difficult task with the poor lighting I have here in Florida.   I was feeling great!  Challenge complete.   And now, just as I'm typing up this blog post, I realized that I created a whole card stamped with circles, and then I put an oval greeting on the front. ***insert a long sigh here*****   I was going to fix it by stamping a new greeting onto a circle, but then I thought, nah, I'm just going to leave it.  Because, afterall, I'm human too, and sometimes I just don't follow directions.   I suppose I wouldn't need to tell you that I created a challenge, and then the oval would be irrelevant.   Either way, this is the card I created, and I like how amazingly simple it is, but also colorful.  What do you think? 

Here's what I used to create this card:

• All Things Thanks stamp set (item #143097)
• Playful Backgrounds stamp (item #141920)
• Eastern Beauty stamp set (item #143675)
• Flirty Flamingo, Peekaboo Peach, Sweet Sugarplum, black ink and smoky slate ink
• metallic sequins (item #144214)
• Flirty Flamingo card base cut at 5 1/2" x 8 1/2"
• whisper white card stock cut at 4" x 5 1/4"
• Stitched Framelits (item # 145372)
• Layering Oval Framelits (item #141706)

Here's how I created the card:

• Score card base at 4 1/4" and fold card in half
• stamp circle images onto the whisper white piece cut at 4" x 5 1/4" using a variety of the ink colorsand stamps listed above
• stamp the greeting "you are amazing" onto a piece of whisper white cardstock and cut out with the stitched oval framelit.  Cut a scallop oval one size bigger than the stitched oval using basic black cardstock
• attach the greeting piece onto the black piece and attach to the card front using dimensionals
• attach iridescent sequins onto the card as shown using glue dots
