we are starting a new CAS Challenge over at Addicted to Stamps and More. I have to admit I always struggle with Clean and Simple Cards and maybe you do, too. Here are the guidelines to keep in mind:
- one main focal point
- lots of open (no pattern) space
- minimal layers
- minimal embellishments
- stamp the adorable little bird from the Gerda Steiner Designs Hoppiness set with Memento (Tuxedo Black), cut it out and color the image with Delta, Touch Twin Brush and Copic Markers
- add extra shading with Faber-Castell Polychromos Pencils
- cover the glasses with Pico Embellisher (Clear)
- apply Distress Ink (Squeezed Lemonade, Mustard Seed) through a 7 Dots Studio stencil
- stamp the sentiment from the Gerda Steiner Designs Happy Hoppy set with Versafine (Onyx Black)
- glue the bird on top of the sentiment
- round the top right corner with a 1'' corner rounder
I hope you got inspired.
Yours,
Very sweet
