This is a pretty fun stamp set.  I wanted to do a scrapbook layout of my daughter's softball pictures but couldn't seem to find the pictures that I wanted.  So I made the card below.  I wanted to make something simple and versatile.  I think that I could use this card for many different occasions.

Here is what the stamp set looks like:

Here is what I made using this stamp set:

Here are the materials that I used:

You Are, April Stamp of the Month Stamp set

Pemberley Paper Packet

Desert Sand and Outdoor denim inks and cardstock

Bamboo Cardstock

Designer Brads

Cricut AP Cartridge

For this card I inked the Pemberley B&T paper with desert sand ink.  On the Desert Sand cardstock I first used my edge distresser and then inked the edges in Desert Sand.  For the flower I sponged the edges before I rolled it to give it a worn look.  The Outdoor Denim CS I also edge distressed and sanded it to give it a more mellow appearance.
