I pulled from the blue and cocoa colored combo to do a little collage and my version of a clean and simple card. Gosh, my clean and simple is still kinda busy eh?
Before I go diving into today's card, I just wanted to say thank you to the folks over at Curtain Call, I had so much fun with their Love Letter challenge and was so very excited to see that they recognized my card as a "showstopper" for the challenge. Eeeks! So exciting!
Okay, back to today's card! To begin, I pulled out my Kraft, Natural, Chocolate and Berrylicious ink pads. I pulled out my Chocolate Sentiments stamp set. I opted to go all lovey-dovey pairing in a Heart STAX, which I stamped with my Woodgrain Background stamp with Kraft ink. The sweet little sentiment was added the sentiment with Chocolate ink. I lifted and tugged the top edges of the heart forward for a little extra dimension.
I must say that I'm not usually one for a "messy" background but I reached for my Abstract Art stamp set and randomly stamped in Natural, Kraft and Berrylicious ink.
Today's little embellishment cluster (I love making these!) was created with a Whip Cream Button, a Berrylicious Button and a Layered Rose with a Chocolate Button in the center. If you look close enough, you'll see a Mini Delicate Doilies Die-namics peeking out from behind <- I am addicted to this tiny Die-namics!
