CHF07 Challenge -- Animals

Cornish Heritage Farms challenge this week is to use an animal on your card. The challenge hostess is Barb Gmitro-Best. Go to the Cornish Heritage Farms Blog to get all the details.You could win a $10 gift certificate.

For my card, I chose the digital image of a wolf which you can find here. What a handsome fellow. I printed out a fairly good size image, cut it out with a Spellbinders Nestabilities and sponged around the edges before taking it out of the frame. For the background, I used a piece of gray cardstock and embossed it in a folder that I had inked with  Memento London Fog. That makes the embossing really pop. Both the image and background were matted with black cardstock and attached to a white card base. I used the computer to print the sentiment. Hope you can play along with today's challenge.

  6. I think I found your blog via CHF site yesterday and I love your cards! They are simple yet beautiful. Your cards have really inspired me to try some techniques. There are so many card makers/bloggers out there but your cards really appeal to me a lot. I find them not layered with 100s of items or tons of layers making me feel like they are so professional that I can't try to make anything like theirs. I truly like your style. Congrats from a fellow MI woman :)
