Single-layer card

In February I participated in an on-line class specifically for single layer cards thru Ellen Hutson's website.  I have been creating cards for over ten years, and for some reason I like to add layers of cardstock to my cards, so this class really was good for me creatively, and got me thinking.  Can I make a card with only one layer?  And can it have the "wow" factor of a card with many layers of textured and colored cardstock?

I was up for the challenge.  And this is the single-layer card that I created....

Even though this card is pretty simple in its design, I added a few embellishments to make it a little extra special.   Like this...

The blue pearls in the center of the flowers, make the card interesting, even though the card is quite simple. 

I hope that I inspired you to try something new today.  Enjoy your day!
