Clean and simple (CAS) card ideas will be a welcome relief during a busy holiday week! I'll be serving up plenty of simplicity on my Stampin' Pretty blog all week long!
Today's 6 1/2" x 3 1/4" card is the essence of CAS. A simple trio of colorful stems along with a little scoring to juice up the sentiment lead to instant chic! PLEASE LEAVE ME A COMMENT below with your feedback on today's card and any questions. Your comments keep me inspired and motivated!
STAMPIN PRETTY TIPS:
-
Each rectangle for the stems measures 1 1/4" x 1 3/4". They look pretty snappy popped up with a Stampin' Dimensional and layered over the frame created with the Scallop Rectangle Clearlits Die.
- For a coordinated pairing, I added the tree stamp (all images are from Stampin' Up! Funky Four) to the Whisper White Open End Envelope.
- Inspiration is everywhere. I saw similar colors and a leaf pattern on a backpack someone was wearing at the bakery. The combo stuck with me until I could translate it into this card.
- I stamped the word "gratitude" (Fabulous Phrases stamp set) first. Next, my Stampin' Up! Simply Scored Scoring Tool allowed me to line up and double score (1/8" apart) on either side of the sentiment for a simple, sophisticated touch.
