Easy Clean and simple card

I love the 'CAS'(Clean and simple) card type for creating something that looks pretty and is very easy for you to do at home.  These can be created quickly which is good for events that sneak up on you.

These two cards are created using the All Abloom designer series paper and pistachio green paper as a mat. The stamp set is embellished events.

To create this, I stamped the focal image on whisper white in Strawberry Slush. I trimmed all around the paper and then cut a mat of pistachio green. The mat has 1/4 an inch of space around the focal point. I then matted the green onto All Abloom DSP sheet. I like having a clean edge around the card base of whisper white. The card only took about five minutes to make.

As an idea, while you have your cutting board out go ahead and cut another white, green and dsp sheet. That can be a quick 'go to' sample for when you want to create a card on the fly!

Holiday Supplement and Yosemite

Hi!

I hope that you're doing well. It's been a bit since you've seen me as I have been vacationing in Yosemite. It was very fun!  There was horseback riding and eight hour 'Grand Tour' to Tunnel view, Glacier point and all sorts of places. Here's a peek!

This is the prettiest place, I swear! 

Yet lets get back to the stamping! Stampin' up! has released a Holiday Supplement with MORE stamps and more importantly, more kits! Kits are so much fun and they don't need a whole lot of 'stuff'. Follow the link below to see the supplement!

 Holiday Supplement 

 10 minute or less card!

 This card above is something that I created for a card buffet. It has the simply sketched bird that is handcolored with the Coastal Cabana Blendabilities. It was very fast to create!

1. Coastal Cabana card base (you can choose the Precut cards to save time)
2. Stamp the bird on whisper white in memento black. I colored the bird in with Coastal Cabana Blendabilities.
2. Using the Ovals Framelets Collections, cut out the bird image and a strip of coastal cabana designer series paper.
3. Using the Banner punch, punch out some of the coordinating in colors! and line them up underneath the Ovals collection. Very fast and easy!
