Our challenge this week is to make a card without any designer paper as suggested by Jess Moyer. Now I'm not quite sure that I'm within the rules. I didn't use any designer paper, I just used stamps on my Whisper White cardstock for the background to my cardinal. It's a stamp from Artistic Etchings stamped in three different greens and the silhouette of the branch is also stamped in the darkest color. That and the cardinal are from A Cardinal Christmas. Everything else is cardstock - not even a smidge of ribbon!
You'll be able to see the rest of the creations if you click on the first link above. Go on - give them some love.
