Simple Black Apricot

Well the weatherman says we will be cloudy today and we will get rain later this afternoon. I am not complaining as we need it. I will be working on some cards for next week as well as preparing for my class that begins in the middle of June. Great way to spend a dreary Saturday!

I received an invitation to a new group of stampers. On their page the moderator posted an inspiration challenge.


When I saw this picture the first thing I thought of was apricot, black, and white. I also noticed the branch centerpiece and Pocket Silhouettes popped into my mind. I then pictured a layout that I thought would be perfect, so I was set to create my card.

It was a quick card to put together. I may have taken 15 minutes maximum. In checking out blogs I also ran across a Clean & Simple Challenge at Ink Spots and Gum Drops so this fits that challenge perfectly. This was a first inspiration challenge as well as a first clean & simple challenge on both blogs. So this is a first for me, 2 first challenges completed at the same time! 🙂 Here is my creation.
