        March is here, along with the winds

    My first card  is  one I made  simply because I was looking at some different challenges.I found this one on SCS.  It was called  TLC    and this week  we were asked to use only one color of ink... I remembered  using this image a few years ago to make a birthday card for a sweet friend... So I pulled  out the stamp set, and  decided on some DP  and  just started playing...
    I used Guava dp  and guava ink, both retired from SU... Sheer ribbon  peach tone pearls... I used my new Spellbinders  die Label # 18  and kept it fairly simple...I thought the dp  was  enough, no need to  emboss or  layer

     And this is the one from a few  years ago ...Again it was one color of ink, I think this image  is pretty done this way...I used glossy card stock on both of these cards.  This one is on celery card stock, with pixie pink, the ribbon  just happened to match perfectly  and some pink  glass  dew drops  added some  extra detail...
    I think both are good examples of  clean  lines, and  simplicity..Neither of these cards are on a white card base...  I guess that was  just they way  they transferred...

    I am so glad you could stop by, I will have my  Teapot Tuesday  card  up  by tomorrow, so please  try to stop back. We are sending some happy thoughts  to a wonderful lady  that loves  to read books on Queen Elizabeth's time,  and enjoys  tea and kitties. She   likes the colors of   burgundy and  navy blue...  

So until then,  thanks again, and  I hope  you are smiling...    : )
