I love making a "just because" kind of card - you can use it for just about anything :o) This card was super simple to make - which is exactly my style. Don't get me wrong - I love making cards that have a ton of detail, embellishments, and pizazz to it. Yet I think a simple card - with a simple design is so much easier to look at - not only much easier to make. Your time is essential - I say make cards with a sweet & simple approach.
- Color challenged? Stampin' Up! is here to help. Their Designer Series Paper coordinates perfectly with their card stock and inks.
- Don't be afraid to have a lot of "white space." I believe that having white space helps draw the eye to exact detail/sentiment of the card.
- PAPER: Concord Crush (119792), Concord Crush Designer Series Paper (117158), and Whisper White (100730).
- STAMP: Apple Blossoms (Hostess Set - 120139).
