SSCC #6 - Anything Goes (with blog candy)

I really enjoyed making this card using the Anything Goes Challenge from Stamping Scrapping Challenge Central. The background inside the aperature is from Cornish Heritage Farms which unfortunately, will be out of business soon. I stocked up on their scene stamps when I had the chance. They work well with Maggies. This is a decidedly male card, something I always struggle to make.

Reduce, Reuse, Recycle - Here's another trick that I use: take an empty toilet paper or paper towel roller and cut off 1/4" circles. Use these to protect your flowers and embellishments on cards. I use small bubble envelopes to send heavily embellished cards, but for extra protection, I lay down a ring over each group of flowers. My cards always arrive in good shape. Bubble CD envelopes are also great for sending cards and are relatively inexpensive.
