This is a byproduct from my sentiment(al) journey the other night. (The Less is More challenge was to do a one layer card with the focus on the sentiment.) I really liked the design, but it was crying out for layers and the challenge required a one layer card. I wasn't sure what to do with it so I looked through Bspinks gallery at Splitcoaststampers for inspiration. Becky is the Featured Stamper at SCS this week. This is the card I CASEd.
This is the card I ended up with.
When I was finished, I saw this little flower that I'd made a few weeks ago. I think it really brings out the pink that is so subtle in the Rosemary.
Card Recipe
Stamps: Herb Expressions
Ink: Early Expresso, SU Markers (Pear Pizzazz, Blushing Bride)
Paper: Very Vanilla, Blushing Bride, Chocolate Chip
Accessories: Big Shot, Square Lattice EF, Chocolate Chip Grosgrain Ribbon, Boho Blossom & Itty Bitty Shapes Punches, Basic Pearl
I got to go out with friends today and we went to a competitor's store. It was so much fun and I got some really good ideas. Unfortunately it didn't leave much time for stamping. Oh well, there's always tomorrow.
Thanks for visiting. Enjoy!

This is very pretty, Bonnie! And, I do love the little, pink flower. Just the right touch. The image is quite lovely and so is the sentiment with it.
Sounds as if you had a fun day. I plan to go out with a friend on Thursday. The only bad thing about it is she isn't a stamper. We'll have fun just the same.
Another beauty! It's such a lovely technique to stamp a faded image behind the text and I love the addition of the little flower.
Wonderful card, Bonnie! Isn't it funny how all those layers call to us? Every card can't be a one layer card....we'd never use up all our stash!
Beautiful! I like the sentiment over the stamped image. Glad you had fun out with friends! :)
