Hi! This card was made for today's Color Combination Challenge: Sahara Sand, Very Vanilla, and Basic Black.
Now, I have to say that when I saw this color combo, "collage" style and One4Joy came to mind... So, I decided to use LOTS of flowers, clock face from Heidi Swapp and this awesome quote from There She Goes.
The background was run through the Cuttlebug Embossing folder, I think named Houndstooth.
The Sahara Sand panel with swirls was made by stamping the Spooky Tree from There She Goes in VersaMark and embossing in Vanilla.
I stamped the sentiment in Noir Black Palette Hybrid Ink onto the Basic Grey designer paper. Next, I sponged the edges in Sahara Sand. I stamped the image on Basic Black in VersaMark and embossed it in Very Vanilla. I cut out words and adhered them to the Sentiment. I also stamped the image in Noir Black Palette Hybrid Ink onto Sahara Sand and cut out several words, too.

Love the saying on this card, and the layout you used. I'm new to stamping so the only color of dye inks I have are black, brown, and gray..(More on order) so when I saw today's challenge,...I thought maybe I can play today...but here I am still trying to think of an idea to make one card...
AND You have MADE TWO! and both are WOW cards...
Oh, to have just a little bit of your creativity...sigh...
