Here is a card I made for the CCEE Stampers challenge this week. We were to make a card with a clock on it for National Punch the clock week. I love the Tim Holtz stamps and the Graphic 45 paper, but i have to say it is way out of my comfort zone. It took me two days to decide what to do with it, but I do like the end results.

Sissy, this turned out great! It may be outta your "zone", but you sure worked it well! Love the edges and dimension. Beautiful card!

This looks so professional! Like you made it for a TH advertisement!!! Your collage of items go so perfectly together and your color palette is so classic and has that vintage feel! I think this is amazing!!! Fabulous card!!!
It's hard, but sometimes we have to step out of our comfort zones to explore new possibilities. Looks to me like you now have a new comfort zone because this is classically-wonderful. Love the monochromatic coloring...like an antique postcard. Great dps and embellishments, too.
