365 Cards - Wednesday White Space

You guessed it! I am not letting the fact that I have not done any of the 365 Cards challenges for this week 100% correctly stop me from trying another one! I will be lucky if Pam does not boot me from the DT before the end of December! I am just getting her back for all those "M" challenges - plus my challenge for next Monday - the woman is mean I tell you, mean! (No more hints, so no asking me, you zealots!)

For today we were given this sketch (and my understanding) is that you can't put anything in the white space.

So here is what I made.

I used some kraft paper, which I embossed with the Cuttlebug Victoria embossing folder to make the card. Then I used some strips of Cosmo Cricket Gretel paper for the edges. I added a silk flower (sprayed with glitter mist) to cover a wonky seam - plus some buttons and a Kaiser Kraft pearl. The greeting is a SU stamp, cut with Nestie dies and a SU punch. I trimmed the edges to match the sketch.

Hope I hit a home run this time...or I may have to retire! I probably won't have time to play the rest of the week, but I'll have a Friday CropStop project to show you, so make sure to check back on the weekend!
