OLW 38

It has been some time since I've participated in a One Layer Wednesday challenge. This week it is a sketch.

I chose a stamp set and some colours that I thought would work, but struggled with it. I'm still not that happy with the outcome — perhaps a different choice of stamps and colours might have made things easier. I wasn't going to post it, but the last two cards I made for the OLW challenges didn't end up on my blog for the same reason! So, here it is...
Stamps: Rustic Rooster, Whimsical Words
Paper: Naturals Ivory
Ink: Basic Black, Cajun Craze, Soft Suede

I stamped the background image in Soft Suede and then positioned each of the other images over the top. That way the images, which form a "visual triangle", are tied together and don't appear to be floating around on the page.

  1. I think it's great how you 'grounded' the rooster and tied all the elements together!
