Elegant and Easy Part 2

Here is another example of an easy and elegant card. This one could again be used for a wedding, anniversary, birthday, or thank you card.

I have been a little crazy over the Kraft CS lately, but I almost enjoy that the color palette is simple for this card.



Paper: Kraft, Sage Shadow
Ink: Chocolate Chip, Sage Shadow
Stamps: Medallion background, Heard from the Heart
Accessories: Vanilla grosgrain riboon, Scallop circle punch, Kraft Corduroy button, twine, Eyelet border punch

Elegant and Easy

Who says an elegant looking card can't also be a snap to create? Not me. I love making simple cards, and often criticize myself for thinking they are too plain, but this card shows that a beautiful card doesn't need to take much time or supplies.

I think this card would be perfect for a spring wedding or even an anniversary card. You can easily change the colors and would still have a gorgeous card.



Paper: Basic Black, Whisper White (scrap), Lovely Lilac, and Almost Amethyst
Ink: Basic Black, Lovely Lilac, Almost Amethyst
Stamps: Fifth Avenue Floral, Happy Everything
Accessories: Wide Oval punch, Word Window punch, Modern Label punch, silver brads

Wedding Card

In an earlier post Amanda had said we were at a wedding last weekend. My neice Alicia was married. The wedding was beautiful. It took place at the Payne Art Center in the gardens. I have to say next to Amanda's wedding at Smith Park it was one of the most beautiful outdoor weddings I have ever been to.

This is the card that I made for Alicia and Craig. I was very proud of this card, and I do have to stay the photo does not do the card justice.

It was very simple. I embossed my card stock with the Manhattan Flower embossing folder. Then I filled in all of the petals with Crystal Effects. It was beautiful.
