CAS card class: 1-layer card.

I'm still trying to backtrack my way into all of the class material I missed while I was sick.  There was a fantastic card that Julie made on Day 2, a perfectly flat card, but with so much interest!  She used a lot of masking to create dimension, which I love.  I love that I can create a fun card with only 1 sheet of paper, my stamps and inks...

I know this card is at the busy end of clean&simple, but it makes me smile, so I thought I'd share it :)

I started out with a piece of PTI's rustic white cardstock.  I die-cut a label shape out of masking paper, tried to eye-ball the center of the card, and laid it down as a mask.  I then stamped a heart-background (PTI) onto the entired card-front.  Once I removed the mask, I stamped my images (from lawn fawn's "love 'n breakfast") into the center.  I then created masks for the images, and also laid down the negative from my label shape.  Into the opening, I sponged some antique linen distress ink, and stamped the hero arts envelope pattern background for just a touch of texture.  I went back in with copics to quickly color the images, and added glossy accents to the muffin-top.  I don't think you can tell from the pictures, but I double-stamped my greetings - once in black, and then right over-top in red.  It gives a quirky effect in real life!

I hope you like it!  Have a great weekend :)
