SDC125: One Layer Creations

Today's Stampotique Designer's Challenge is to create a single layer card! Never an easy task for me, but this is what I came up with:

I began by stamping this lovely Dance image and coloring her with Copics. I wasn't able to play along with Sarinda's fab gesso challenge last week but still wanted to give it a try, so I brushed on some Claudine Hellmuth Studio gesso after masking off my dancer. While it was still wet, I pressed Daniel's Hearts into the gesso. I also spritzed on a bit of Goosebumps. Once it was all dry I swiped on some Distress Stain - Dusty Concord & Broken China. Here's a closer look at the texture from the gesso and Goosebumps.

There's a lot of stuff going on with this little card, but it's all on one layer of paper! Well... almost. The Dance Text was stamped on a scrap piece of paper and added with Matte Multi-Medium. But it's on there FLAT! That counts, right? :-)

I hope you'll play along with us this week over at the Stampotique Designer's Challenge!
