Granola Love

Published by bronih at 9:23 pm under 2 Sketches 4 You, Card Designs, Challenges, Splitcoaststampers, Stampin' Up!

Here’s a different kind of card….for me anyway! But I think I really like it!

I started out with this week’s 2 Sketches 4 You sketch and threw in the Technique Lovers Challenge TLC205 at Splitcoast to use pleated paper. I took me a while to decide how to use the pleated panel, but I like how it turned out! I also wanted to use some of my new Basic Grey Granola paper (which I love!). It’s so yummy!

And there’s no coloring on this card! Hard to believe, I know!

Hope you like it!

Thanks for stopping by for a look!
