15 Minute Project ... for a "Tall and Thin" Challenge

Today I'm posting the second 'Tall and Thin' card I created for Sharon's blog challenge. LOL, when I get an idea or a concept in my head, I can't let it go!

This super-fast card was created on Bazzill textured card stock with designer papers from Daisy D's discontinued "Gingham Rose" collection. Tell me, why is it that all the great designer papers are retired?!?

I used an embossed metal frame for my focal point, and stamped the dot border, the sentiment, and the little curlicue with Memories Chalks-A-Lot ink on Bazzill Kraft card stock. After stamping, I punched the whole thing out with a square punch and adhered the stamped image to the metal frame with my tape runner. I then mounted the frame on the card with dimensionals ... I'll be honest, more than just a few!

Finally, I cut two flowers and some leaves from another sheet of paper from this collection and mounted them on the corners of the frame using dimensionals; I really love the way all the shadows create interest on this very simple card.

I finished this card so quickly that I had time to clean my stamps before the timer went off ... talk about making a fast card!
