Day 6 Clean & Simple

Although its Monday and I sorta get depressed by Mondays, I'm delighted I got a few cards done today. One of them being day 6 of my clean and simple class with Kristina Werner, Julie Ebersol and Jennifer McGuire. Today's lesson is Tone on Tone background stamping. Here I used a Hero Arts Cling background stamp embossed in black on black cardstock. I love how it came out. I added a white pennant banner and I die cut a little heart for some color. Now that I'm looking at it I think I should have gone with a scalloped circle for the sentiment instead because its stacked (another tip learned in an earlier class) I shall try that tomorrow!!!

Tomorrow I will venture into masking multicolor stamping as Jennifer McGuire demonstrated in class today. Come back tomorrow and get a peek at how well I did!!!
