Good afternoon!! What a week!! I’m sorry for being a slack blogger this last wee while. I’ve been up to my eyeballs in fundraiser and children being ill and all manner of things that are life!! But! I am here now for a brief moment!
This afternoon I’ve had a chance to do some creating in the peace of a silent house. Hubby has taken the three big kids to visit family and it’s just Lara May & I. Lara has been napping on and off which has given me some time to do some {very} much needed stamping for fun! On my upline Alisa’s forum there was a cyberstamp and one of the challenges was Clean & Simple. Another was Faux Suede. I am LOVING what I created. I don’t say that much, but I really really love these cards. LOVE THEM. Wanna see?
Ok, so I’m in a chatty mood so you’re gonna get the whole story. Just skip text and look at purty pics if you’re in a hurry!! LOL
So first of all what IS clean & simple? Minimal layering. Minimal embellishments. Uncluttered, lots of white space. Able to be reproduced quickly. Err. Can I pull that off?? Hmmmn. Not sure (oh yeah, we already know I did, but just humour me ‘kay?). I knew I wanted to do the suede look on the clean and simple. Two birds, one stone and all that. I needed to maximise play on limited time. What’s Faux Suede? It’s where you use a bone folder over and over your piece of cardstock until the layers separate. When you pull them apart you get the suede effect. Noice eh?
I started by stamping the damask design from Friends 24-7 onto Whisper White Cardstock in chocolate. I used Baja Breeze for the strip of suede and the sentiment and label are from the very lovely Vintage Labels set you can get for FREE with Sale-a-bration (go on ask me how!). I punched out the sentiment with the mega oval punch and sponged the edges in Baja. I loved the result so much I decided to whip up a whole bunch more. But when I went to stamp I put the damask stamp into the Baja pad. Ooops. Oh! Actually, that looks kinda cool too. So out came the chocolate strips and I sueded them up too. In the end I had 3 with the Baja damasks & 3 with Chocolate Chip. A set!!
An the two different ones together:
And just to be different I then made this one with a Baja Breeze base. Choc Chip damask design and the Choc Chip Suede strip. The others I will bundle up in a nice white bag with some envelopes stamped with the damask design, and a bit of Baja or Chocolate ribbon wrapped around it. The card below will be the one I write in to say thanks to one of the loveliest Mums from school who makes my family a meal every time my Lara is sick. How nice is that? So there you have it. A clean and simple gift!! In under an hour. Love it!
Until next time!
Happy Stamping!
