Simplicity in Nature

My card for One Layer Wednesday to let nature inspire us.  I chose to use stamps from Flourishes Ferns & Fiddles set for my card.  I did some embossing with my Spellbinders rectangle dies, something I hadn't done in awhile.  I was prepared for it not to turn out right, but thankfully it did on the first try!! Yay!!!  Even though fall is upon us now I didn't want to use real fall looking colors for my card.  I went with SU!'s River Rock cardstock & Old Olive ink.   

Thanks for taking a peek... hope you are having a fabulous day.   I know I am!  I got some happy mail today... a HUGE box of stamps and dies from Heartfelt Creations and my comp. copy of the new Just Cards!  And later this afternoon... I'm going to Sonic for the first time!!  Yipeee!

Supplies:  Cardstock:  SU! River Rock; Ink:  SU! Old Olive; Stamps:  Flourishes Ferns & Fiddles
