These next cards will be entered into the Challenge at
Simon Says Wednesday, CAS....Clean And Simple.
I struggle with this style of card, 
so I do like to try and make them from time to time. 

Here, I have created a set of 4.






I used the Impression Obsession stamp set, Bloom Baby Bloom.
It has these 4 pretty little wreaths, each design a bit different.






Amalgam Black ink.
Copic Markers.
Sakura Glitter Pen.





Same card designs with different wreaths in different colors.




Very Clean, Very Simple.
The struggle is real!






Makes for a pretty little set of note cards.

Over the past couple of months I whipped up a ton of 
CAS cards and cards that are nice and flat, no embellishments.  
I gave a whole basket of them to my daughter.  Thought she
could keep in touch with her girlfriends via snail mail.
It's been a year....am I right?!?!  Well looooonger than a year!




Thanks for stopping by!  So grateful you do!

Our son in law, Tim turned 40 on March 26th!
Thought he would enjoy an odometer Birthday card, more or less lol
I used a set by Recollections for the numbers which were stamped in Amalgam Black ink and heat embossed in Black Powder.  Each number was stamped on to a smaller square of card stock.  Then I trimmed the tops and bottoms to show movement, going from 39 to 40....in the blink of an eye lol
Many layers of black and red card stock.
