Classy


I made this card for three challenges, but I missed the deadline on one (The Paper Players, CAS paper piecing).  Fortunately another challenge came up that fitted in very nicely.  But then as I was typing this blog, I realised that my card didn't meet the criteria for one of the challenges, because I can't count (Less is More, 3-2-1 Recipe: my recipe was 3 pearls, 2 stamps, 1 paper piece.  Well no, actually, because I used 3 stamps.  Doh.  I even used 3 inks.)

So we're back to two challenges.  Still with me?

Lawn Fawn - make your own patterned paper using stamps - I used SP & Company Little Floral Background.


Dynamic Duos monochromatic colour combo challenge:


Fortunately, black/white are also allowed.

Coco Chanel's words of wisdom are from Kanban, and the dress stamp is from Creative Stamping RN94G.

I'm off to make a 3-2-1 card now!
