Those of you who have followed me for a while know that simple and Cindy don’t usually go together. I’m all about layers with ribbon. Despite the fact that I don’t do simple there was something about this card by Sue Vine that caught my attention. I loved it and knew I wanted to share it with you. What better way to share it than change it up, right?
Well, if you look close at the two cards you will see that I didn’t change a whole lot about Sue’s card. I did change the color of the card base as well as the color of one of the inks. Sue used a white card base and I used a Bermuda Bay card base. The only other thing I changed was the color of the lighter ink. The original card has Coastal Cabana as the light ink and I used Pool Party. The only reason I switched this color up was that my Coastal Cabana was stamping too dark and if I stamped it off first it stamped too light. Pool Party to the rescue! 😊
Sue and I both used the Biggest Wish stamp set. It’s really a fun set to use. There are only five different words in the set but they all come in both a block font and a script font. It makes it fun to combine them as you can see on our cards.
I do have to admit that I was itching to emboss the front of card but I resisted. Keep it simple! Simple stamping is difficult for me but I do need to try it more. The results can be stunning.
Have a great day! Take care and Happy Stamping!
