Totally Papercrafts - Clean and Simple
I thought I would support the challenge sponsored by my chum Mandi this week!
This one is another simple design using Stampin' Up stamps. The vase is made from a bauble stamp, the base part of it was masked with Selotape before inking which I removed before stamping with Versamark and then embossing with fine detail gold embossing powder.
It was punched out with the SU bauble punch and the the excess at the base simply snipped off. I like it when stamps can be utilised in different ways.
Each of these cards is exactly the same layout, but each looks slightly different because of the shape and presentation of the images.
This week we are trying to see if every follower of "Less is More" could submit to our challenge, which would make over 1000 entries... regular contributors will probably helps us on our way by entering more than once, but it will be interesting to see how many submissions we get.
Why don't you join us? Anything CAS Goes!

ReplyDeleteI really like the long duck image on a square card, that layout really appeals to me! Clever use of the bauble stamp too.

Three great cards. How clever you are at thinking 'outside of the box' for your flower in the vase card - I would never have thought of using a bauble stamp as a vase in a million years. Sue.x
ReplyDeleteFor some reason I didn't comment on these - think I was preoccupied with parties! However, I think your cards are really lovely. I particularly like the sweet ducklings!
ReplyDeleteChrissie, all three cards are FAB! I adore those sweet little ducks hatching...too cute! I also admire your coloring, expecially on the water scene. Gorgeous!
