The challenge is use only cardstock and the papers from a Basic Grey paper pack I've had in my stash for about a year. A friend of mine was also feeling uninspired by the Scallop Heart Nesties she had bought, so to make things interesting, use this set of dies on every. single. one. Turned out limiting your supplies is a great way to get inspired.

I'm normally not a big fan of paisley, but.... I just love this marbled paisley from Bittersweet. It just makes everything so lush. I heart it, like I need a full 25 pack of it just for me. Candy.
It's a bit hard to see, but I used Spellbinder's Impressabilities on the bottom half of the card base. I like the look and I love that there aren't any edges from an embossing folder because there is no embossing folder, but I'd really prefer a deeper more dramatic emboss. I think some experimenting with cardstock shims may get me the look I'm going for. How fun is having a pink inside of your card? Totally fun :-)
