Good morning, my friends! I'm already melting in this heat...how 'bout you? I won't whine anymore... I'll just say that I'm a big fan of Spring - how's that for being positive? lol!
I'm also a fan of the Clean and Simple cards (CAS) although I enjoy a wide variety of styles. This week's
Try it Out *T* is to create a CAS card - lots of white with one pop of color (the image can be multicolored). My card today looks very different than I first imagined, but I'm happy with the results. I love when that happens! It truly is clean and simple with a twist of elegance : )
This image is from Elisabeth Bell's new release for SCACD,
Sampler Edition #5 - '
Just For You.' This stamp is so incredibly versatile! I didn't know how much I loved it until I inked it up (just refilled my ink pad with
Memento refill, Tuxedo Black). Can you imagine using this stamp for a Thank You card; Birthday; Thinking of You; Sympathy; Friendship??? You see, that's only the ones off the top of my head!
This card was put together very quickly. I've colored with
copics, but of course you could use your fave products. B34 B32 B00; G28 G24 G21 G20; RV 32 RV11; C0. The vase is sprinkled with
Glamour Dust here and there and
Stardust Stickles around the edge of the image for a bit more bling! The ribbon is a very lush velvet I've had in my stash forever... I love how it pops against the white embossed background. I just love white embossed paper... it's soooo pretty : ) Silver pearls and an epoxy word sentiment finishes it off. Sweet and simple!
I can also see using
Flower Soft on this image. That would be gorgeous! This time, I chose to keep it simple, but watch out next time lol!
