Quickie 365 Cards - Fruit & ABC Challenge K - Keep it simple


This is an absolute quickie , before I bustle off to Bath to babysit my granddaughter whilst my daughter sorts out the decorators, who should be arriving today.

I love this stamp and have simply heat embossed it and coloured it with Perfect Pearls.

The recessed embossing on the card is with a Nestie.

I didn't know what sentiment to put on so I'll leave that until the occasion arises.
As it is really simple, I thought that I would enter it for the ABC Challenge too, as the theme this week is K for Keep it simple! it's certainly that!

That's it!

  2. Simple but effective, I've never managed to master using the nesties to make a frame on the card, always seems to go a bit wrong for me.

    Ps re yoru comment on my blog - I use pro markers, not copics as they are so much cheaper, you don't get as many colours or as many effects as you do with copics but they'll do me until funds permit copics to enter my home!
