Live Simply

     I adore the image at the Progressive Challenge for LeAnn's World 101 this month, which you'll find on their FB page.  It reminds me of how wonderful it can be to just live simply.


     This is a one layer card and I printed the image right onto the card front, then colored with my ProMarkers, adding a few highlights with white gel pen.  The die cut sentiment was made with a die from Die-versions.  The original sentiment was inside a circle but I cut that away and used just the words.  No embellishments because I wanted this to be very CAS in keeping with the sentiment.

     A short post today but my time at the computer is limited.  Happy Crafting.  NanaConnie

Just beautiful! There always seems to be something special about images of bicycles. Great idea of using just the words of the die cut.

Pretty card! Your recipient is one very lucky person. Connie, I don't see the metallic element required by Double Trouble Challenge but I'll keep looking. This card is eligible to be entered into Brown Sugar Challenge, but hurry! Their challenge is almost over. Thank you for playing along at Double Trouble Challenge.
