Hi! This card was made for today's Limited Supply Challenge: WHITE OUT!
This was a tough challenge, but fun... VERY Limited.
Participants had to use White or Vanilla as the MAIN color.
And, they could choose only one of Black, Any Brown, or Gray.
Finally, they had to choose ONE other color!
THAT'S IT!!! NO other color for anything! Ink and coloring included!
Embellishments,punches and embossing (Cuttlebug) were fine, but NO distressing the white!!! YIKES!
ONLY 1 image stamp, stamped once. ONLY 1 sentiment stamp, stamped once.
So, Since I found the Creamy Caramel and Bashful Blue card stock DUMPED in a pile on the floor of my office this morning, I figured that Speedy the Cat had a GREAT idea! LOL!
I stamped the image in Bashful Blue. Then, I stamped the sentiment in Creamy Caramel. I also punched out the butterfly! (Hey, punches were allowed! LOL)
I sponged the HECK out of the primas with Creamy Caramel, around the "points" of the hydrangea blossoms to add depth. The leaves where punched from a Martha Stewart punch folded long ways and sponged with Bashful Blue. I added branches from my favorite Martha Stewart Punch. (Both MS punches came from WalMart!)

I gotta be honest, Faith - I looked at this challenge and said to myself *how's markie's mom gonna be able to do this one?* LOL. YOU NAILED IT!!! This is so pretty - you kept true to the depth of your trademark and elements. That prima is awesome. I like the way you featured the *There She Goes* stamps also. Thanks for your willingness to post so faithfully and share all the intricate deets with us! Hugs!

Faith, you have no limits. Even with a very limited list you can make your card incredibly beautiful and look like you were not working with limits. Fabulous my friend....
