The cards I posted yesterday were just one layer, and today I'm posting two more one-layer cards. These are made in response to Susan Raihala's One-Layer Wednesday challenges. The first is for this week's, OLW21, which required being inspired by nature.
SHOW
AND TELL: stamps are from Stampin' Up (Pocket Silhouettes, Thank You Kindly); cardstock is Papertrey Ink (Kraft); ink is SU (Early Espresso, Craft White) and VersaMark; also used my Scor-Pal to emboss the lines that frame the sentiment.
The other card was made for the past challenge to make a one-layer Christmas card, OLW13.
SHOW
AND TELL: stamps are from Stampin' Up (Berry Christmas); cardstick is PTI (Stampers Select White); ink is SU (Going Grey, Pink Pirouette, Soft Sky, Basic Gray).
I think I'm tired tonight — I just don't feel too chatty. But I do have a bit about our day that I can share.
On the plus side of the day, the weather was much cooler. Finally a day that didn't reach 90 degrees. I'm not even sure if it got up to 80. Nice.
On the minus side...
it rained. But we needed the rain. It hasn't rained in weeks. I didn't really need to sit in the rain at a football game all afternoon, but at least it wasn't like last week when I sweated through the whole game. A bigger minus... the Panthers lost. Again. Sigh. It may be a long football season.
That's it for now. Thanks so much for dropping by for a bit. Hope your weekend was great and that the coming week is full of blessings for you!
Love you Janelle and Ken...

Very nice cards! Sorry it rained on your game. It always makes losing that much harder. Seahawks won today. I'm trying to be a fan again but it's been such a long time and it really is still baseball season. One more game to go on Friday then I'm done for the season. Hope things are well with you! God Bless!!

What a wonderful way to use the silhouette stamps! I need to file this away in my memory bank! Awesome cards!

I'm not sure if you're really throwing yourself into this football fan thing Janelle! Your cards are so beautiful and I must check out this One layer Wednesday challenge. One layer cards are so useful.
