Just a simple card tonight. Well, I say simple, but it was a work out. This little leaf punch is a tough one. Why is it the smallest punches are the hardest? Here was the challenge Ashley issued this time around:
I actually have zero stamps that apply to the above, and that's when I go digging through old supplies. And here's what I came up with:
Kind of fun right? Basically I just drew a heart and used my little leaf punches to create a border. Super simple, but fun too.
Stamps: Ashley's Blossom
Card Stock: Chocolate Chip, Real Rust, Old Olive (SU); White (PTI)
Ribbon: Lemon Grass (Offray)
Ink: Chestnut Roan (ColorBox)

Don't forget there is a new Everything But The Kitchen Sink Challenge up with a killer prize. I hope you'll come join us. Obviously we know it's outside the box, but we hope because of that you'll take the challenge and come be inspired! I can't wait to see what you make.
