One Layer Happy Birthday

Hello. A new challenge has started at Happy Little Stampers CAS Challenge, this time we want to see your CAS cards with no added layers. Just the card base with your images and/or sentiments on it. No layering. No die cuts – one layer.

Here is my card:

Using a top folding A2 card base out of Neenah card stock, I stamped the two layers from the Uniko ‘Background Blocks Layered Modern Floral’ using Catherine Pooler inks.

I chose these two colours virtually straight away, and chose Catherine Poole rinks as they always stamp first time on new stamp sets – a little rubbing over the stamp with the fingers, but then you are good to go. Of course -having the Misti helps – just in case!

There are some little stamps in the set too which I used to stamp extra in the main image – those little dots and a few leaves….

As a little aside – this is the second card I created for this challenge. The first card just didn’t take my fancy. I used some layering flower and leaves sets from Altenew, some masking – but the end result didn;t really do it for me – I kept thinking about t, and finally – whilst tidying my craft room for yet another virtual crafting session – I came across this stamp set just sat there waiting to be added to the CML app.

Bingo – I prefer this card much better – it just kinda sings to me…..

I hope you can come and join us for this challenge – there are some amazing one layer cards from the Design Team – and such a difference between each make – such inspiration….. xx

I shall be entering the following challenges:

TTCRD – anything goes

Time Out Challenge – inspired by words (flowers)

Uniko Challenge – anything goes – option autumn colours

  2. Incredible the things that we can rediscover when we tide up our craft rooms, right ? And I’m glad that you found this Uniko stamp set to make this beautiful card. Love the colours you chose and you’re right, it’s perfect for a One Layer Card. Thanks so much for sharing and for playing along at Uniko.
    PS: What’s the CML app ? Sounds great !
