Good Tuesday morning! Returned from a weekend in Cape Cod. Fabulous blue skies. Fabulous everything.
Experimented with stamping on top of a background. In this case, I paired some Avery Elle flowers with a classic gingham from Impression Obsession. Still love gingham.
Kept it soft by adding a vellum strip embossed with the sentiment, also from Avery Elle.
MOOD WHEN DONE: Relaxed

Love it, Joan! Glad you had good time away!
I love gingham very much. I just bought a bunch of digi pages of it. Beautiful card. Glad you had a nice weekend.
sounds like a wonderful weekend get-a-way.
Love the stamping on top of the gingham...very fun.
Love this card for so many reasons. Thanks for sharing.
I really like the look of stamping on top of the background. The sentiment on vellum goes so well with the softness of the blue gingham. Love this card! And a weekend getaway is such a treat.! Good for you both!!

I always forget about vellum. I like how you avoided the visible adhesive issue by wrapping it around the back of the panel... I think I'll go try it myself! Thanks for the inspiration!
This is so pretty. The vellum really softens up your focal point. I have so many fond memories of Cape Cod, but have not been in so very long. As a young professional, I spent 2 weeks at the Chatham Bars Inn, and as a young girl went with my family in the summers. Now, I want to go back again.
WOW! I love the soft gingham and the vellum together...so very pretty! Fab design, Joan!
Nice gingham background! Any color, any time -- love that! Pretty with the vellum strip. I like how you tucked the vellum so it didn't have to be adhered. The idea to make a sentiment band over the image is very clever and one to keep in mind.
I love this card! How come when I make a simple card it looks- simple. You do it and it looks awesome.
