I was fortunate enough to spend most of my day yesturday stamping-gotta love it when that happens! Although I must admit it rarely ever happens in my house. I had a friend come by to make a few birthday cards and while our children played we got to create! She need to make make up a bunch of cards for upcoming birthdays so I tried to quickly design some clean and simple ones. After playing along with the lovely ladies at Paper Players earlier this week, it really got me in the mood stamp a little more simply. I usually love my layers and embelishments but I must say it is a little freeing when you can whip up a card in under 15 minutes!
For this card I statred with a Crumb Cake base and stamped the bubble circle from Circle Circus with Rich Razzleberry ink. I then stamp another circle from the same set in Melon Mambo, Crumb Cake and Marina Mist on Whiper White, and the sentiment from All Holidays was stamped over them in Early Expresso. I wrapped a piece of the 1/8" Taffeta Ribbon in the same colour around the white piece and then made a little bow, attaching it with a mini glue dot. It was then matted onto a piece of Marina Mist and Rich Razzleberry. To finish the card off I used the Dotted Scallop Ribbon Border with a strip of Textured Melon Mambo Card stock.
That's it for today-happy stampin',
