Card with a view




The new challenge at "A blog named Hero" is called "With a view" and I love the theme at CAS-ual Friday which is color opposites - blue-orange and the silhouette challenge at Papercrafts Connection - this is my take on it;








I used stamps from Wonderful World and International skyline.

Have a great day, hugs, Karin

Love your card, the sky is beautiful, love the sentiment and the border around your 'window.'
