And now for something completely different . . . Ted's challenge on Happily Ever Crafter for August was to keep it simple, stamps and pens only. This was really, really hard for me. I had a basic idea, but as I made the card, I kept starting to reach for dies . . . more cardstock . . . glitter . . . you name it. :-) Well, I did finally get something I liked, despite so-so masking and some questionable stamp lining up, LOL! I used a PTI set that hadn't seen love in awhile, Garden of Life. With the small leaf image, I stamped "grass" in various green inks. I stamped and masked FF #5, then stamped the two-step flowers. I colored their centers with a glittery pen, and then added the sentiment to the center of the Fillable Frame. It's actually a long sentiment, all one line, so I had to break it up by inking one part at a time. There! Something I'm pretty sure I haven't done before--a one-layer card! Think you're up to the challenge? Details are here on Ted's blog.Supplies

Paper: PTI--Vintage Cream

What a happy card! I have problems with one layer cards too but you did a great job on it.
One-layer would kill me - ROTFL But you have a lot of color going on with that big frame in the middle...certainly will cut down on the postage *giggles* This is a cheery one!

I love how you used the fillable frame in the center of the card. It's like a big fluffy cloud in your garden.
