We have a one layer challenge at Less Is More... with flowers! For a one layer card, there is *nothing* else for layers of paper or cardstock than the card base. Maybe you could even call it a "no layer" card. That means no die cuts (unless they are inlaid) and no mats.
All of this is difficult for me!! I like adding a simple mat to most of my cards. And I LOVE die cuts! One must become a little creative in how to create dimension without layers! I chose to do some very light ink blending through a brick pattern stencil to start my card... added a stamped flower and sentiment and walked away. This photo doesn't do the card justice... I think it looks better in your hand!

I think this is absolutely gorgeous!! You made it look easy!!
ReplyDeleteI have the same problem with one layer cards as I do love dimension and my die cuts.Your fantastic shading and colouring really gave this beauty so much depth.
