Less Is More, CAS ON SUNDAY

One Layer Card
I just now saw the “Thanks” 
Looks like I missed the boat with this one. 
Maybe it says thanks on the inside :) I only read one layer…uggg

Perfect for this challenge though!




 I dont make one layer cards ver often.  For this one I used Clyde From Serendipity Stamps and heat embossed him with some very old gold embossing powder I had from way back when. I only colored a tiny bit. I have seen this stamp colored and its gorgeous! My sentiment stamp is from Papertrey Ink Think Big Favorites #20
 I used the largest stitched mat from Lil Inkers Design. Paper from Papertrey Ink Vintage Cream.

Hope you enjoy the rest of your week!

  1. This is such an elegant card...love all the gold but what really jumped out at me what how you made that red bow. Honestly, I see rolls and rolls of ribbon at Michaels that looks just like that red with gold trim. Love this one Marybeth!

  5. Sometimes people don't see the one layer bit, sometimes they don't see the theme of the card...never mind, maybe next time you'll get the lot!
    It's a nice card though!
    Thanks so much

  10. Goodness, I missed this post too, can't believe I did!!!
    Simplicity at its best!
    Your card doesn't 'need' anything else.
    Love the red bow and sentiment!
    I'm pleased to hear that it's cooled down a bit!
    Bye,

  11. I cannot believe how far behind I have gotten. Anyway, this horse is such a stunning image, and doesn't need much! I have seen you use that TB #20 sentiment so often, I threw it into my cart last week, and am eagerly awaiting it.
