Oh my, another great challenge over at One Layer Wednesday. This one is entitled “In the Kitchen.” The challenge was to find something in your kitchen to provide inspiration for a one layer card.
Here is my card:
It was inspired by two bottle caps from Marble Brewery located in Albuquerque, NM. My husband left them out on the kitchen counter for me because he knows I save them to use if my crafting. I have a stash of really interesting bottle caps. All kinds of colors and designs. They really can add 3D interest to any craft project.
A couple of things about my card. It is a 2 layer card. I’m still getting used to stamping right on the card base and seem to always have a smudge or smear or something is just not right. I know it doesn’t have to be perfect. I tell my customers that all the time! That’s what makes it handcrafted and special. I know, I know. But still…. So with this card, I just made it easier on myself and mounted the card front to a Basic Gray card base.
The background paper is shimmery silver, but it is hard to photograph. This card really shimmers in person.
Supplies Used:
Stamp Sets: Vintage Frames, Circle Circus, Sweet Shapes, Simple Shapes
Ink: Basic Black, Gumball Green
Paper: Brushed Silver, Basic Gray
Accessories: None! I love one layer stamping!

You did a really amazing job with your gorgeous bottle cap inspirations, and I love your layout! You can definitely see the shimmer on the silver cardstock and, by itself, as one layer without the grey, I think it would have been just as fab!
Such a cool inspiration and I love your interpretation!
Love how the frames look like the bottle tops, and I love the colour scheme.
This one is really cool, I love the colors
