I've never entered 2 cards for the Impression Obsession challenge, but really wanted to ink up my newest stamps. I knew I'd love the Spatter Cover A Card, CC059, & boy do I! The Berry Sprig, D8766, was stamped several times in the corners & the panel edges were distressed to create my simple background. The wonderful quote, Infinite Beauty, C5159, is stamped, sponged, distressed, matted & mounted with foam tape. Gives me a card to use for my goal of sending "just because" cards in 2014. Glad you took time to stop by.

Oh gosh I love this sentiment Greta! IO stamps are great aren't they. I think this is the berry stamp my SIL has and always makes such pretty cards with. Sure wish I could get her to blog LOL! This is super pretty and the sentiment is perfect for it!

This is so pretty and just perfect for your goal, Great!! I often wonder what ever happened to "just because" and "thinking of you" cards, so I'll stand with you in your movement to resurrect them! When I sold my cards in a small boutique a few years ago, they were always best sellers, but I don't often see them on blogs very often.
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year! I want to wish you all the best for crafty, happy, and healthy days!! Cheers! Darnell
truly beautiful in everway hunni...
ReplyDeleteAll the best for 2014!!

congrats on meeting your goal for card making...I am guessing that is why we make so we can send them out. I need to work on that one too. This is one beautiful card and that sentiment is simply perfect! Happy New Year Greta!
ReplyDeleteThe spatter stamp is awesome! This is a wonderful 'just because' card! Happy New Year!

ReplyDeleteHappy New Year Greta.
Oooh pretty spatters! Thanks for playing the Impression Obsession Challenge!
ReplyDeleteI have never seen that quote before but it's beautiful. I love the splatters!
ReplyDeleteYes, yes and yes (I'm trying to hold back from shouting) to the "just because" cards! Awesome goal for 2014, and one that I'm going to strive towards, as well! I send monthly cards to my niece/nephew - perhaps it's time to broaden that circle! Your card here is stunning! The background you've created is "the" one for this sentiment, that is truly ever so beautiful! Gorgeous visually; outstanding 'purposefully'! LOVE this (and again, thank you for your inspiration!). You're awesome! Hugs~c
ReplyDeleteBeautiful card, love the spatter CAC, I'm pretty sure it's hanging out in my stash as well. The quote is beautiful as well. Happy New Year ! Shirleyx
ReplyDeleteI LOVE the splatter background! The sentiment panel is absolutely gorgeous :)
