Joanne finishes up her month as hostess of the CCEE Stampers challenges by asking us to make a true one-layer card -- no layers, no pop-ups, no embellishments. This is not my usual style of cards, but I'm always open to a challenge. I do like masking and sponging, so that's what I did for this Thanksgiving card. After taping some removable tape around the edges of the card, I sponged on some Ranger Distress Antique Linen ink and stamped the leaf down the side in three different colors. It's one-layer but gives the impression of some dimension.
Check out the CCEE Stampers blog for some more one-layer creations.
