In need of inspiration? The BasicGrey Challenges blog design team worked their magic with this sketch. I was blown away by the cards...everyone had a unique take on the sketch.I used BasicGrey Infuse papers. I stamped the quote (Penny Black stamp) in black ink. I popped up the circular die cut (also in the BG Infuse collection) on Stampin' Up! dimensionals. I wanted to use a heart somewhere on the card. I ended up using my piercer and trying to make my own (on the brown horizontal strip). I felt like it needed something more...ribbon? I decided to quit while I was ahead :) I love these papers!!!

The paper piercing was the perfect touch to go with those papers. I think you were wise to forego the ribbon................deanna
These layers are very classy! Another great job and congratulations on your recent winning challenges. I am looking forward to seeing your creations on a front magazine page!
Fabulous card June, love how you matched those gorgeous papers to the sketch perfectly - the rest of us shuffled things about somewhat (lol). What a fabulous sentiment and that die cut finishes is beautifully.
hugs Heather xx
This is just beautiful June! I think you have inspired me to give this challenge a try :)
I'm with Kristie - I may have to break out soem of my BG papers, now. :-)
WV: litan. People who say I spend too much time stamping need to litan up!

Terrific card, love the saying!
Such a beautiful card June and gorgeous papers too, I love how you used the swirl in the paper in just the right place, it leads the eye into that fabulous sentiment. The pierced hears are the perfect finishing touch, no ribbon necessary, you were right about that. Fantastic DT card! Hugs, Chris :)
