I decided to try and make another card for the current Simon Says Stamp challenge to create something with sparkle and bling! It's very CAS, using one of my current favourite colours from PTI called Autumn Rose.
Ink: Versafine Onyx Black
Stamps: Stampin' Up (My Friend)
Other: Ribbon (PTI); Gems (Hero Arts); Buckle gem (from South Africa); clear embossing powder
As you can see, a very simple card to reproduce. The silhouette image is stmaped in black ink and heat embossed. After today I am going to move away from black for a while, I'm not sure why I am using it so much lately! That gem buckle is so old, it's amazing what you can find when you dig around in your old stash! Whoever lands up receiving this card I hope that they recycle the buckle, I am serious! (I still had the price tag on the packet, so please, please, recycle the buckle!!!).
At about this time I should be running my 14 miler training run with my buddie in downtown Austin! I am sure that I am really enjoying it, no jokes, I have been looking forward to this run for some time now!
See you all tomorrow and thank you for stopping by!

Wonderful CAS card, Brenda! Wow! It really is quite beautiful! I can see why you love that color, and with the silhouette image stamped in black, the buckle and gems, it really packs a gorgeous punch!

How "simply" elegant :)
so very elegant! love the colors and design. gorgeous card, Brenda! love this! hope you have a lovely weekend! =)
I am surprised no-one has pleaded for the card so that they can recycle the buckle Brenda!!!!! Of course any card maker who received this wonderful creation would be happy to recycle.
It is gorgeous Brenda and it is not simple this is a misnomer in describing such a card.
Smiles:)
love the buckle Brenda. Hope the run was fun... that's a LONG run...
Love everything about his one, B! Black and Rose look amazing together- and I agree- the buckle and ribbon are a great touch!
So very love ur cas card :D the design altogether look so elegant.
Oh...my...word. I am in LOVE with this card! Your color + black scheme is awesome! And I love your blings!!!
The black silhouette against that Autumn rose color is very striking, Brenda, I love this!
another great color combo. such a pretty pink color.
this is really beautiful Brenda. I love the design and the black so boldly against such a feminine color. And the bling....well that just rocks. I have never seen these type of embellishments...did you pick this up at a craft store? I have a die cut for "buckles" that one can make and embellish but they aren't as gorgeous as yours!
So classy and fabulous! I never liked a buckle embellishment until I saw this card. I hope the run was fabulous!
so elegant, it's perfection Brenda!
I hope you win!!
TFS~
This is so elegant! Love the design, Brenda!

Yes, elegant indeed, love the buckle!
Actually with the addition of the buckle, it made the card extra elegant. Love the silhoutte stamping!
What a lovely shade of rose, Brenda - your card has just the right amount of bling! Thanks for playing with us at Lily Pad Cards!
