Simon Says Clean And Simple

Oh how I love these CAS challenges!  This one is SIMON SAYS STAMP and I could not wait to join in.

There is just something so liberating about lots of white space showing off an image to it's best without hiding it behind loads of fancy fluff.  To start with, I found it took a lot of courage to leave a card this bare, but now I absolutely adore it and enjoy every one I make.


Ingredients:  Stamped Image  Lili of the Valley - Basket of Roses  Medium  Distress Inks (ReInkers)  Sentiment  Hero Arts  Papers  First Editions Spring Drop (matting layer)

And that's it, clean and simple.

Hugs Sxx

    I love the simpler style too, and it gives the image a chance to shine centre stage. Your cute LOTV little girl is a darling, beautifully coloured and a joy of a card. hugs, annie x

    I confess I do love CAS - I always seem to fail at the uber blingy cards - just can't get my head round it.

    How can you fail when you start with LOTV and add the magic Squinky touch? You're getting good at placement of your image and sentiment for best effect, too, by the way. Guess that blinky neon sign and your recently acquired fairy wings have boosted that confidence level, eh? LOL Love & hugs ~Beans
