Allsorts

A card for a couple of challenges!
I used the sketch from Allsorts and the theme of Best Wishes from A Spoonful of Sugar.
I cut the squares with a Nestie and added smaller squares of DP which I had overprinted with a crackle stamp. Although it doesn't look like it, there are three different colour papers on this card, but the subtleness of shade and the overprinting makes it all look rather similar.
The stamp is a gorgeous one from Magenta and I printed the sentiment on the computer as I didn't have a stamp in a suitable size or font.
I quite like monochrome cards.
P.S. My name & blog address are just on the piccie... not on the card... I discovered that I could change the angle of the caption when doing this, that's what probably caused the confusion Annie!

  1. Another lovely card Chrissie. Am I being stupid for asking? [no dont answer that please] Is your name actually on the front of this card at the bottom or just on the photo of it?

  10. Beautiful card, Chrissie! It would work for our current challenge at Cuttlebug "Inchies" except you need to add a Provo Craft item.
