Digi Doodle Shop's Best Challenge #30


The challenge this week at Digi Doodle Shop's Best is Keep It Simple. This means no designer paper and only 1 embellishment can be used. I usually prefer clean and simple cards so I thought this challenge would be a breeze for me...it wasn't! I just love using pattern paper. I decided I could fudge a little and give my plain white cardstock some texture using my cuttlebug. The image I chose for this card is Mouse in Teacup. You can purchase this stamp HERE. Isn't he just adorable? I collect tea cups but I think if I actually found a mouse it one, I wouldn't be too happy. We would love to have you join us in the challenge. Make a simple card and link it up at Digi Doodle Shop's Best challenge blog for your chance to win a gift certificate at the Digi Doodle Shop.

Hi Julie,

I think this is in the top 5 of popular stamps from the store. You did great job with it, and I love how it's up against the white. That really brings it out.

Hugs
