Krafty Silhouette

I made this card for SCS Clean and Simple challenge (to use bling) and Christian Paper Crafts color challenge (kraft, black and red) that was last Monday. It just took me a while to get it photographed and posted. Better late than never, right? I used Papertrey kraft cardstock and rounded the edges with my corner rounder. I stamped the images from Papertrey Life stamp set in True Black ink. I used my second smallest Label One die to emboss the area where I wanted to stamp my sentiment and stamped the sentiment in Pure Poppy ink. I added some bling to the sides of the sentiment on top of the embossing. I really love these colors together. It's just so classy.

Thanks for stopping by and taking a look. Have a blessed day.

Supplies

I love the black image on the kraft, looks very nice. I also really like those rounded corners, I never think to do that to my cards.
