Day 5 and 6 - Clean and Simple 4

I'm back again with more cards from the online card class, Clean and Simple 4.


I'm writing this late Sunday night and trying to get every last minute of my vacation squeezed in. Hate the thought of going back to work. Don't get me wrong, I do love working with flowers but as I get older, I want to work less and less. Lol!

Anyway, it's gonna be another quick post because I really should already be in bed by now, so let's get to the cards.


This first one is my take on Kristina's fun card! I tried a different color combo than I would normally use. Such a fun die-cutting technique too! The border stamps are from Simon Says Stamp -  all from different sets that I rarely use.



Laura shared an inking technique that was really fun too! I love the way this card turned out! The flower is from Simon Says Stamp's Friendly Flowers stamp and die set. 

 On day 6, there were some more awesome techniques but I only had time to try one of them.


Tasnim showed us a masking technique and I love how this one turned out too!

And that's it. Thanks so much for stopping by! Hopefully I'll be back soon with a card from day 7. ♥

Awesome cards and my fav is the second one with the gradual inking on the bg, Barb! Glad that you made so many cards during your break and perhaps there is a way to work part-time!
