One Layer Wednesday

I just had to play in the One Layer Wednesday #99 challenge today -- Pinterest inspiration!  Oh yeah - I am all about Pinterest :).  Susan also had added 2 of my favorite CAS stampers - Karen Dunbrook and Ardyth Percy-Robb, as Team Members.  Congrats Girls - you both are fabulous stampers!  I have no doubt you both will be a wonderful addition to the OLW Team!  Okay, off to my inspiration;

At first I went to use my washi tape, but then thought - oops that would be a layer.  I instead, using my word SU word punch, made a template for sponging.  My first attempt I used the oranges, but decided I wanted turquoise instead.  [I miss my turquoise]  I like this card~ :)  The sentiment is from Hero Arts, and I am also entering my card into the Hero Arts August Challenge for the Clean and Simple category. My flourish is Papertrey.

I just love this One Layer Wednesday challenge!  It is just a perk my card worked out for one of my favorite stamp companies. :)

Thanks for stopping by~

How do you consistently come up with these gorgeous cards? Beautiful in blue, just so simple and so striking. Love these quirky inspiration photos. What an eye for art, translated into a "work" of art by you. Well done. AnnaJernigan
