another challenge card

Here's another card I did for the Hero Arts one layer challenge. And of course, there's more masking. It really is a great way to give your one-layer cards dimension and interest without adding bulk.

With this card, I tried to mimic a strip of my favorite patterned paper - the Bo Bunny tone-on-tone dotted papers:



Again, sorry about the photo. The red strip was masked and brayered with Lipstick Red chalk ink, the dots were stamped with a darker burgundy red ink (Maroon chalk ink, I think?), and then the flourish stamped over that. All stamps (dots, flourish, and sentiment) are Hero Arts. Do me a favor, will you? Just pretend that you don't see the red fingerprint smudges all along the crease... I did my best to edit them out, but I can still see them and it's driving me batty. Grr, the pitfall of working with glossy card stock. ;)

We're in for even more snow today! It's so weird... been such a mild winter and now, all of a sudden, while everyone else is celebrating the beginning of spring and warmer weather, we're getting dumped on. LOL But, it is still desperately needed moisture, so I can't complain too loudly.

Thanks so much for peekin'. Have a great day! :)
