Growing in Unity, Day 4

 Good morning! Happy Thursday. It kind of feels like Friday and still I wonder how we got to Thursday already. Funny how time works, isn't it? Thank you for checking out my creations this week! I really appreciate all of the comments. While looking for inspiration, I searched Pinterest and Instagram for simple designs. I like simple, impactful designs and often use those in my cards.

Here is the inspiration video: https://pin.it/2EraSU8

Here are my two Thank you cards:





Instead of usingthe empty space to stamp on directly, I added a piece of the same color cardstock as the base. I distessed the edges a bit and attached it over the empty space to give the card a little depth. On my first card I used the sets Wayward Florals (Whit Kit 3/21),  Jar of Mixed Sentiments, and Layered Mandala. I stamped on the outside and also added some color to the inside to complement the outside. 





I used Layered Mandala exclusively on the second card. 


Thank you for visiting today. I'm curious...do you like making simple cards or do you tend to create more elaborate ones?  Have a great day!

  8. These are great. I love cardmaking but tend not to have tons of play time, so I often lean towards simple cards. But if I have a little extra time and the right idea I'll definitely try something a bit more complicated.
