I need to get my gifties out to my DSS players this weekend – but as usual, I don’t have cards ready. (I’m a coordinator in the Divine Secret Sibling group over at SCS.) Instead of just doing something, I checked out the latest challenges and came up with this combo.

This week’s challenge from Denise, at Res-Q Challenge blog, was to use text as a main component to a card (resq35). I thought about making the entire background be text, but I needed to stamp 4 of these babies and I just did not have that much time (kiddos *insisted* on a trip to the pool). So when I spotted the sketch at Clean & Simple (ftl81) I knew that would be an easy way to achieve my goal.

I tried hard to get a color challenge in this too, but it was NOT working, so I kept it to the two colors I had already stamped. This is a very simple card and it isn’t executed the best, but I do like the idea.
