Simple is good too!

Hi,

I was going to post another birthday card tonite (female this time) but decided to go with a thank you card instead.  This one is a really clean & simple design.  Not my usual style.  lol  I have really been into black & white cards for the simple ones lately. They always look so clean & crisp. 

The stamp is from Studio 112 & I stamped it in the center of an embossed oval made with a Sizzix embossing folder.  An outline with a running dash made with my Micron pen added some dimension & helped the embossing stand out. The little flower & ribbon were from my stash.  I was going to take a shot of the inside, but my camera battery died. I cut another piece of white for the inside & stamped just a portion of the flower on the top & bottom edge, leaving plenty of room to write a message.

Better get busy.  Catch you later!

  2. This is absolutely stunning. Crisp and clean, you are right. The stitching detail is a great addition and I love the little pop of red.

  3. I have this embossing folder and love it. Great idea to add the stitch lines for definition. It's an effective part of the black and white design. Very pretty floral image, too. Quite crisp and striking, especially with that pop of red.
