Those of you who check my blog often know that I love Love LOVE designer paper. However, I also wanted to make sure that the women attending my Cardmaking Stack-a-Thon can see how fun it is to make a card even without designer paper. *gasp! (That was a stretch for me!!!)
I used an embossing plate to give depth to the background cardstock and went with simple images and embellishments.
I acutally like this card, which is surprising, since I'm such a fan of designer paper!

Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black
