Sweet and Simple

Sweet and Simple. Not what I'm used to, but I like it! No punches, no fancy designs...took only 1/2 hour from start to finish. I could get used to this!
I made this card for Our Creative Corner Sketch blog...which closes in 36 minutes, so I'd better get going!


I used this template to create my card, I really didn't want to use clouds so I improvised and branched it out :D


This is the color palette I chose from. Really like these colors together...I feel another entry to the Color Throwdown Challenge coming on:


The most time consuming part of this card was the paper piercing. Can you tell I free-handed the Labels Eight? (Gives it that "homemade" feel :D)

Have a great night!



Stamps: Aspiration (CTMH)
Paper: Kiwi Kiss, Baja Breeze, Basic Black, Kraft
Ink: Versafine Onyx Black
Accessories: Martha Stewart pearls, Ranger liquid pearls Baby Blue, Labels Eight Nestabilities, paper piercer, dimensionals
Size: 5 & 1/2" square
