This is a concept SO far out of my comfort zone that I had already packed up my supplies for the day! But as I thought about it I realized that these challenges are not meant to intimidate but to encourage us to try new things - so back to the craft room where I decided to face not one but TWO fears . . . Years ago I bought this 3 Step stamp set but no matter what I tried it just never looked right - maybe because it was only leaves & flowers HMMM - maybe a doodled stem??? I 3-step stamped the blossom (looks better than usual) Then drew a wavy line for the stem (yuck) added a second swirled line - better - and some dots. Then stamped the leaves and underlined them with more dots . . . . my flower center was kind of lost so I doodle dotted around it too and finished with a very simple doodled frame.
Will I ever try this again . . .only time will tell but at least I ended up with a usable card.
