For my card, I went with an easy sketch SC529, mainly because of the size of my image & the sizes of the dp I had left. I added the circle element in the corner to balance things out.
The USA map was stamped on a white pierced panel & I had to tilt it a bit & move HI & AK a bit to fit around the greeting. The die cut Concho (from the Bandana die) was added in the corner & I also added a punched state of TX & little heart. I have several sizes of TX punches/dies & I chose it because I'm a TX native, it's in the middle & the shape is easily recognizable. 😀 And I love the concho..it reminds me of the Texas Ranger badge & a couple of my ancestors were TX Rangers. But this map would work great with any state you want to highlight.This is also for the Serendipity monochrome challenge.
Thanks so much for looking! Closeups & the inside are on my blog: The Write Stuff
