and trees and singing hills join in the chorus too,
And every
gentle wind that blows send happiness to you.

Good morning!
Today is the start of another Clean & Simple Challenge at the Outlawz.
This week Linda has challenged us to make our own designer paper.
Challenge excepted Linda!
I love making my own papers and this is one of my favorites!
This effect is created by adding drops of ink to glossy card stock. Then you take another piece of glossy card stock, mist it and lay it on top of the inked card stock and you smoosh them together, smoothing out from middle to edges.
Then peel apart and let dry.
Note: keep colors to 3-4 max and go light on the darker colors or you could muddy everything up
You never know what you are going to get!
It's always a surprise to see what comes out and in this case I love every piece that came out of this batch!
Card size - A2
SUPPLIES
Card stock for Cardbase from X-ped-X
Glossy card stock from stash
Reinkers - I used Stampin Up!
Sentiment from The Angel Company (Just because)
Image from Stampin Up! (Seeds of Kindness)
Rhinestones from Paper Studios
Thanks for stopping by!

Every time I see your blog title I feel like I belong here!! ;-) Your card is beautiful!! Cara, your BG is just wonderful colors and technique. I really like how your stamped your image and applied the rhinestones too! This could be framed!
A really special and pretty card for that special MOM! I know she loved it, the lunch and the movie, but most of all the time she has spent with you.
I do not generally work with paper, but your card is so pretty! Maybe I should give it a try! :)
Such a gorgeous card. I haven't made my own paper in years. Thanks so much for the inspiration.
Gorgeous Cara! Love this background and your choice of colours!
