Retro Sketches | RS206

Happy Saturday Everyone!!

It's time for a NEW sketch over at Retro Sketches!!

 

This weeks sketch really challenged me...I LOVE clean one layer cards but can't seem to create them.  For my card I used the super cute Bad Day stamp set from Create A Smile.  I couldn't help myself...I added a little dimension but kept the design very clean & simple.  Hope you like!

 

Supplies:

Paper: White CS (Recollections), Velum, Necessities Black 6x6 Pad (My Minds Eye); Stamps: Bad Day (Create A Smile); Ink: Black (Simon Says Stamps), Tuxedo Black (Memento), Lucky Limeade (SU!); Coloring Medium: Copic Markers; Tools: Pierced Circle Stax, Scor-buddy, Paper Trimmer (Fiskars), Big Shot (Sizzix); Other: ATG Tape, Foam Tape

 Now it's your turn.  Make sure to stop by the Retro Sketches Blog to see what the rest of the girls have been up to!!

Happy Stamping!!
