Jennifer Styles is hosting the One Layer Wednesday Challenge this week. She just got back from a trip to the Pennsylvania Dutch country and she really liked all the hex signs on the barns and houses. So this week's challenge is to do a hex sign on a one layer card.
A One Layer Card is defined as one piece of cardstock folded in half. No layers.
This is the hex sign I was inspired by.
I had to use several stamp sets and the Stamp-a-ma-jig to make it work.
I thought it would be neat to place it on the barn. So I scored the card around the circle, masked the design, then dragged the Cherry Cobbler ink pad over the card front.
I was pretty tickled with the results.
Card Recipe
Stamps: Friends Never Fade, Silhouette Sentiments, Warm Words (retired)
Ink: Cherry Cobbler, SU Markers (More Mustard, Always Artichoke, Cajun Craze)
Paper: Whisper White
Accessories: Extra Large 2 1/2" Circle Punch (for mask and to draw circle), Stamp-a-ma-jig, Stylus
Now that was a challenge!
Thanks for stopping by. Enjoy!

This is fabulous! I lived in Holland for a year when I worked with Billy Graham and loved it. Lovely people, the CHEAP flowers, delicious chocolate and your created image is fabulous. Love the wood siding background too.
