Simples Sunday

This week's Simples Sunday card - and another entry for the Less is More challenge 'String or Twine'.
A similar design to yesterday's card and just as smple but, this time, an anniversary card. The cardstock is Naturals Ivory which has a lovely rustic feel and goes perfectly with the Linen Thread. Both hearts were punched with the large Heart Punch and the one at the front was embossed using the Square Lattice Embossing Folder to add texture. A sentiment from the Hostess set 'Express Youself ' was stamped using the Gold Metallic Encore pad and a bow of Linen Thread was added to the embossed heart. I told you it was easy :0)

Have a good day and I'll be back soon

CASe'd card

The card today is one that I have CASE'd from the US version of the Stampin'Up! demos magazine - ironically it is an article about CASEing!! Unfortunately it doesn't give the name of the person who designed the card so I am unable to give credit but thank you whoever you are.
I have changed the design of my card slightly and used hearts, punched with the Small Heart punch and run through the Perfect Polka Dots Embossing Folder, rather than flowers which were on the card I CASE'd and I also used slightly different colours. I love this colour combo of Basic Gray and Pool Party and it's one which I will definitely be using again. The ribbon is from the free SAB set and the sentiment from Sassy Salutations.
If you like the style of this card do pop back tomorrow to see a variation on the same theme.

More Hearts!

Another heart card for you today and this is using some spare hearts from the card I posted yesterday. I had punched out some hearts with the large Heart Punch but decided they were too big for yesterday's card so I used them up by making this one. 

The hearts were punched from the Sale-a-Bration DSP, Everyday Enchantment and the butterflies are from the Beautiful Wings Embosslits die, in Riding Hood Red.

The first heart was glued onto a piece of Very Vanilla which had been matted onto Riding Hood Red cardstock, and the second heart raised by using dimensionals, the sentiment (now retired) was stamped in Riding Hood Red and a knot of Riding Hood Red Taffeta ribbon was tied around before layering onto a card blank.

A very simple, easy-to-make card using limited supplies but nevertheless quite an effective card I think.
