Back to Basics- Remember when you first started stamping and all you had was card stock, ink and stamps? it’s time to put away our fancy toys and patterned paper and make a card with the very basics.
So for this challenge you are limited to the following:
Stamps: As many as you like
Ink: up to 3 colors (not counting black or brown)
Paper: up to 3 colors of card stock plus one neutral; NO patterned paper.
Coloring medium: You can use ONE coloring medium (markers, pastels, pencils, etc.)
Embellishments: ONE kind. You can use more than one of the same kind…(5 brads, two ribbons, etc.) but only ONE kind.
NO Nestabilities but punches are ok.
Yikes! I'm not sure I can make a card without patterned paper. I decided to CASE an old card of mine which was a favorite. I just changed up the colors a little and here we go.
Details
Stamps: Balmy Breezes, Canvas
Paper: Watercolor Paper, More Mustard, Ruby Red, Old Olive

We are expecting 20-30" of snow this weekend so this Palm Tree will make me think warm thoughts. I hope to get a lot of stamping time in, but I think I will be spending a lot of time outside shoveling and sledding with the kids.
