Keep it Simple

Saturday, October 4th, 2008

I can get carried away sometimes with lots of layers and I forget how great a simple no layers card can look and how much fun it is to make quick cards. So I pulled out one of my Favourite sets from the Spring Mini Catalogue “Bloomin’ with Beauty”, A little reverse masking and Water Colouring and my card is done. Well I could make a few more of these…. They are that quick.

Here’s another that I kept simple…… I just love elegant Christmas cards and I think this card is a great card to make in bulk (don’t forget Christmas is coming……)
