So, I had finally decided to join my friend Susan's one layer challenge. And then she calls for a flourish. The only flourishes I have are full backgrounds, and that didn't appeal to me. So, I was understandably bummed. That is, until I started sorting and organizing in my craft room and found one of the Hero Arts 4 x 12 sets that a friend sent me in a goodie box. It's the Bird & Branch set and lo' and behold, a flourish.
All that to tell you that I have a couple cards for Susan's challenge. Long-winded much? I think maybe! LOL
This one uses a sentiment from PTI's Damask Designs along with the floral-y flourish from Bird & Branch.
The sentiment I used on this one is also from Hero Arts, the set is called Truly Appreciated. I guess the pink chalk ink wasn't as cleaned off as I thought, because the flourish looks pink, but then again, I'm picky.
These LOOK great to me, but I can't help feeling like I cheated. It took more time to clean up after I made them than it did to make them.

That stamp is just perfect! I like how you flipped the stamp on the second card - clever you!!! Beautiful cards, Dawn!
This isn't cheating! It's a "one layer" challenge. These are perfect! What a great flourish that is! Love 'em both, Mary Dawn!
Your one-layer cards came out great!
Love them! Especially the dark one, you don't see that much for a one layer challenge! Glad to see you back and crafting!
Gorgeous one layer cards Dawn and I love how completely different they look from each other because of the different designs and colours.
You clean up?
Awesome. You have made me decide to play too!
These are great, love the white balance on the first card.
