Hey everyone! Yep, that's what today is....World Card Making Day!  I'm not big on making cards..in fact they don't come to me easily.  SO, I thought what better way to practice than to actually make one for the "holiday!"  

This card took hours to make-not because it was hard, but because it was simple.  My brain doesn't seem to work this way anymore.....I LOVE and appreciate simplistic scrapping and crafts, but when it's my turn to do so, I clam.  Anywho...the printed paper is from Authentique.  The card base is simply a piece of watercolor  paper that has been dry embossed with a Sizzix folder. 

The metal embellie sticker is from Mometa.

The stamp is from Teresa Collins Fabrications line stamped with Colorbox's Stephanie Barnard Premium Dye Ink in "Banana."  See, seriously simple and easy...it realistically probably took 30 mins to make in real time! You know where you don't have to get up constantly to get your 2 yr old out of the paint, glittter, glue (everything but the crayons you've given her!). Hope you've enjoyed this quickie!  NOW hop on over to the very talented Denise Hahn's blog to check out her awesomeness!  Remember there's a prize giveaway!
