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. ♥

Day 4 - Clean and Simple 4

Hi!

Today's cards are from playing with the fun techniques shown on day 4 of the online card class, Clean and Simple 4.


I first have to apologize because I am in a huge hurry today and will not be sharing any links to products, so if you have any questions, just ask in a comment below and I'll do my best to get an answer to you.

My first card uses the faux dry embossing technique shared by Yana. You use die-cuts to create the look. 


My next card is a fun one! I love using embossing paste and I really enjoyed trying to layer the paste using different stencils! This was inspired by Jocelyn Olson's beautiful card!



I didn't really love how this turned out so I wanted to try it again with two different stencils.


I sure am enjoying this class! 

I'm off to get some other, non-crafty things done around here! The house and chores have been neglected this week, to say the least!

Hope you have a wonderful weekend! Thanks for stopping by! ♥
