Nature (SC201, WT191)

First of all, the photo at left shows the layout for yesterday's Sketch Challenge. I had a busy day yesterday and just didn't get around to it, so I thought I'd combine challenges and use the sketch with today's Ways To Use It Challenge which was to use our corner punches.
I like the sketch but somehow I managed to get 8 layers on top of that base card! I think I do that with every masculine card I make! I wonder why. Anyway, the base card is Naturals White with a layer of white on a black mat. Then, there's Soft Sky on a black mat. This panel is paper pierced. Next, there's River Rock on a black mat with the sentiment stamped in black ink. The main image was stamped with black on white and matted on black after punching with the Stair Step Corner Punch. I added four Vintage Brads to top it off. Thanks for stopping by today!!
  • Stamps: Nature Silhouettes

This is so striking. I love the colors- the retired In Colors are still my favorites. Your paper piercing is the perfect accent. Blessings, Diane/Lost in the 60's
