Created for LSC207 {to use TWO or more “things” on your card that are a “stretch” for you}.
One thing I almost never do is use only white paper on a card. I didn't use a single piece of colored or patterned paper on this one... only a single sheet of PTI White.
The second thing that I hardly ever do is use colored ink. I just received all the brand new Colorbox fluid chalk colors so I used sour apple, blackbird & ocean on this card. I also have a hard time using solid image stamps... I'm a colorin' kinda girl and love line images, so I forced myself to grab solid images for this card.
One other thing that is a stretch for me... no ribbon on this card!!

Wow! I love this! So bright and cheery! Love the leaves with the black dots, your birdie is darling as are your flowers. Love the sentiment with the rhinestones. Very pretty card! TFS :0)

Gorgeous card!
As you were listing things you don't often do, I was checking them off in my head too. I was just thinking yesterday what a waste my ink pads are because I never use them - only the reinkers.
