One of the challenges called for black & white + 1 color and another for fruit and that's how this card started... It's a one layer card with a bunch of masking, embossing etc. Love the way it turned out.
I also got in a bit of my own calligraphy, although I almost ruined the card with the pen and ink I started to use. Click on card image to see more details and descriptions, and where I made the boo boo.
I'm using what was, I think, intended as an Xmas stamp by
Quietfire Design , but hey... shouldn't we enjoy the delights in every season. Love Lemonade in the summer.
And it fits for these challenges:
By the Cute & Girly Monthly Aug - something with fruit
Crafty Creations #181 cool summer treats
The House that Stamps Built DCC81 Black, white + 1 color
Cute Card Thursday #228 CAS
Totally Papercrafts #128 monochrome

This is a gorgeous card!!!! I love the calligraphy and beautiful background. Thanks for joining us this month at BTC&G and we hope to see you again next challenge. Hugs, Brigitte
How clever to make that sentiment multi-purpose!! I would never think to sponge Black Soot with the yellow but it works. Your lettering coordinates nicely with those corner motifs. A lovely summer card.
Beautiful and yellow is my favorite color!
Lovely, cool card. Beautifully put together.
Thank you for sharing your creation with BTC&G's "Fruity" challenge.
