Strictly Single......Layer, that is!!!



Wow....Barbara is finishing the month with a TOUGH challenge....at least, a really tough one for me!!!  She challenge the Crazy4Challenges DT to make a single layer card......ONE LAYER PERIOD.  Only the base card.......no other layer of any type.  Phew....this kind of challenge makes me sweat!!!  But......that is why I love these challenge teams....it makes me do things I would never have done without a big nudge.

AND......surprise, surprise,.....I  just LOVE this card......I used a bold bloom from SU.  I heat embossed it with white embossing powder onto my red base card.  I then heat embossed the sentiment (not sure of company...ask in a comment if you really want to know).  I then took a black flair and a ruler and drew the lines around the edges.....and it was done.......I love the drama and crispness..........and yet it is a truly one layer CAS card.  Thanks for the nudge, Barb!!!

The Crazies Blog is going to be filled with one-layer creations......fabulous, I am sure!!!  So follow my lead and head on over to peruse!!!

You know what a fan of RED I am. This card is amazing. I'll have to play along today! Surely I can get a one layer done.
