Nothing Better



I was sitting on our deck last night and and idea for a CAS (clean and simple) card came to mind. I really love when an idea just pops into my head and I am happy with the end result!! My initial idea was to make a one layer card with just the flowers. I decided I wanted to use Kraft cardstock and Papertrey's In Bloom set, you can fancy the flowers up or they stand alone so beautifully!! When I pulled the set out I decided to use some of the leaves and add Spring Moss into the mix. I think these 2 colors together along with the black ink are pretty!!! I rounded all of the corners and scored around the top layer of cardstock. At the last minute I decided to add the sentiment, glad I did, I think it finishes the card off nicely. I thought about trying to find the right spot for ribbon but I don't think the card really needs it.

Supplies:

Stamps: Papertrey In Bloom

Paper: Papertrey Kraft & Spring Moss

Ink: Versafine Black Onyx

  4. PUT THE RIBBON DOWN! LOL! This card is truly perfect as it is, anything else would just 'clutter' it!
    I love your Kraft bloom - just stunning!
