This week's One Layer Wednesday Challenge (OLW33) from the Simplicity blog is to use a home decor element on a one layer card. I used the A Muse Couch and a sentiment from the Vintage A Muse Clear stamp set coupled with a background stamp from Cornish Heritage Farms that reminds me of couch fabric.
If you look really closely at the cardfront you will see an oval cut out of computer paper with a Nestabilities die. Easy-Tack removable spray adhesive allowed the background stamp to cover the cardfront but still have an opening for my focal image.Here the background mask was removed, the couch/sentiment stamped in black and the pillows colored with Copic markers. Look closely at the oval mask - the top pillow is cut out -
Put the mask back on the card where only the pillow is showing and then. . .
stamp the A Muse Mini Flower. What fun - Big flowered pillows are very popular and even though the A Muse Mini Flower is really teeny tiny it was still a tad too big for that pillow.
A length of silk ribbon and a mini pearl on the pillow finish this simple card!
