TLC176 hello friend, view 2

Photo Details

Poster: PH in VA

About 12:30 last night/this morning I finally came up with an idea for this week's Technique Lover's Challenge (create a suspension card). I thought some of the Lizzie Anne Designs stamps I just received in yesterday's mail coordinated well with some of the Basic Grey LilyKate 6"x6" papers.

I assembled the card, looked at it, and thought to myself, "I really need a background stamp." So I pulled the two layers off veeeeerrrrrry carefully and stamped the Linen background on the card base, and then reassembled it. It doesn't show much in the photo, but please take my word for it, it's there.

So, here is the result of my night owlish efforts. Thanks for looking!

That scallop looks great as a suspension card! And the paper and stamp definitely coordinate wonderfully!
