A great combination

I have been smitten with red, black, white, and kraft as a color scheme for a good while now. I decided to get wild and crazy and swap out some dark grey for the black :-)

Despite the fact that I was using good clear stamps, I'm not thrilled with how that red teacup turned out. But, overall I think this is a great card - if I swapped out some of the colors (and left out the heart tea bag tag) this could be a great masculine card.

This layout was also inspired by Clean&Simple Stamping's FTL41 and another that I can't seem to find!

Tip: I printed nearly every one of the CAS Fall-To-Layouts onto photo cards on my home printer. Now when I'm stumped, I flip through the 'deck' like flashcards. Often when I do this, two or three ideas will jump into my head at once, so I'll pick one to work on, and tuck the others into the CD cases of the stamp sets I want to use later - that helps trigger whatever the original idea was!
