67%~


My final grade is a 67% on Jami's DD/DDA September Challenge. The perimeters were:

Challenge Focus: Create a NO LAYER card any size, any color. Your card base is it - no additional layers of cardstock or designer paper at all.

Required Element: Masking - use masking or reverse masking in some way to create your design.

Restricted Element: No use of the color pink

I generally print these out, being the rule follower and all....:)
But for some reason, this time, really thought I could remember it all. Apparently not. So a day late and missing a required component, I finished this card this morning.

You can see some FABULOUS no layer cards here:

Boy, Val, as Meg said, your card is certainly 100% in my book! Love the look and the way you used the ribbon. Fantastic!

This is awesome! Definitely looks like 100% to me! So elegant. I think I might have to CASE this. TFS!

I love this, Val! The way you scored the bottom for decoration is inspiring! I am a big fan of non-layered cards, so will be casing this one! I think I have that dragonfly and I have some stamps that are Autumnal that would work great.
Happy Equinox!

I think it's 100% beautiful! I love how you used the scoring to give it that extra something, not using any other cardstock or papers. Thank you for sharing!!
