Today is the Limited Supply Challenge on SCS. The challenge today is to create a one layer card using only a sentiment or verse stamp. You can use all the embellishments you want, but the card can only be one layer. Now making a one layer card is very difficult for me, I love layers and lots of them. Like to use my background stamps too! But alas, they can’t be used today either. Needless to say, this challenge is step outside the box for me, but I’m rather happy with the results. I’m sure there is a stalker having a birthday soon!

Since background stamping was not allowed in the challenge, and I wanted a little texture to the card, I used 140 lb. Canson watercolor paper. The sentiment was stamped using Happy Everything from SU, in Black Stazon Ink, and the ribbon was tied around the card. To give the card a little more texture, I sewed a line of black stitching around the outside of the card. You gotta love my girls for giving me that sewing machine for my birthday! To finish off the card, the red/maroon prima was added, and the rhinestone was the finishing touch.

I hope everyone has a great weekend and you get plenty of stamping done! Let the creative juices flow!!
