The Card Concept #1

Hello Friends,

There is a new challenge blog called The Card Concept.  This is an exciting challenge, since you have 6 style themes to choose from!  I couldn't resist not making a Valentine's card using this color combo:



My card:


I decided to go with a Clean and Simple (CAS) card.  The card base is Very Vanilla, with another layer of the same card stock.  The branch was die-cut from Espresso card stock using the Memory Box Woodland Branch and the swing was die-cut from Kraft card stock using the Memory Box Set of Swings.  The tree was hand drawn.  Two pink hearts were adhered to the swing using some dimensionals.  The sentiment is from Inspired By Stamping Be Mine, and was stamped in Memento Rich Cocoa.

I'm entering this card in the following challenges:

Inspired By Stamping Customer Gallery  - January Gallery Contest
Curtain Call - Inspiration Challenge: Smitten    
   
Thanks for taking a peek,

IBSIC #44

Hello my friends,

Happy Saturday! Inspired by Stamping has some yummy colors this week, so I decided to play along.  I was inspired to create a Valentine card:


IBSIC-#44
My card:


My base card is Whisper White, followed by Blushing Bride. The 3 different designer papers are from Lost & Found Blush Paper Pad. I am running low with this pad, and it's one of my favorites.  The sentiment, the little red heart and the curvy design are from IBS Be Mine Stamp Set.  I added red twine to my bow and a beautiful pink flower (also from IBS Store). 

Thanks so much for stopping by,

The Paper Players #129 & DD#36

Hello my friends.

I'm so happy to share with you that my card, see HERE, was selected as one of the Cut Above winners over at The Paper Players...Thank you, Nance!
Today, I created another card combining 2 card challenges: The Paper Players #129 & Dynamic Duos #36:



My card:



I love making Clean and Simple Cards because they are super fast to make!!  The base is Whisper White, following with Real Red cardstock.  Again, I made my own background paper by photocopying the page from a dictionary that has the definition word "Love" - it's in the top left-hand corner.  The image is from SU! Greetings Card Kids, colored with Copic Markers.  The sentiment is from IBS Be Mine Stamp Set.  To add balance to the card, I added Red Baker's Twine and 2 red rhinestones.

Thanks so much for stopping by,
