H2H Challenges: Sentiment {Only}

At Heart 2 Heart Challenges, we're getting sentiment-al this week! You have to use a sentiment as your focal image, but no other stamps. For you stampers out there, this week will certainly be a challenge. You definitely need to go see what our talented Design Team and Guest Designers have come up with this week to inspire you!

My card uses the sentiment from The Present stamp set and the Sonoma paper pack. I made nested rectangles to frame my sentiment easily. Since those rectangles seemed a little lost on the Smokey Plum card, I added the strip of B&T to the left side to anchor it and then added one of my leftover "zip strips" (the top of the B&T paper). The floral element is my current fave thing to add to my projects: crumple up several scalloped circles, pierce a hole in the middle, attach them together with a brad, and then smoosh and fluff until you like it. To finish off my card, I added some purple sparkles. The large one completely hides the pewter brad! The metals came from the Pewter Mini Medley accents.

Be sure to visit the H2H blog for some inspiration, then get sentiment-al yourself! You have until the end of the month (Friday!) to link up any of this month's challenges, so there's still time- of you hurry.
