Clean and Simple - Ranunculus-ly Easy! - Stampin' Creative Global Blog Hop

Happy Blog Hop Day!

Every month my friends and I bring you projects surrounding a common theme.  We use only current Stampin' Up! products, in hopes of inspiring you to try a new technique, a new layout or reaching for new products and/or colour schemes.  This month the theme is "Clean and Simple".   We can ALL use some Clean and Simple layouts, right?  Mine fits the bill.  It took me 5 minutes to pull together.  Check it out!


"Why Tamara!", I hear you cry ... "that doesn't look simple!  Look at all those images!  So perfectly spaced and crisp!" 
I assure you ... VERY simple!  I reached for my pack of "Lovely Layers Vellum" .. of which I may have three packs .... that hadn't been opened yet (sound familiar?? lol).  I used some of our liquid glue behind some of the leaf images (so you wouldn't see the glue through the vellum) and attached it to a standard card base.
I grabbed my dies from the Ranunculus Romance Bundle and cut out three leave images and the label.
I inked up the sentiment, stamped it and then assembled.  I used dimentionals on all the pieces ... and added three Matte Black Dots to finish it off.
Five minutes.
Seriously.


That's it, that's all!  CRAZY quick, clean and simple!  I encourage you to dig into YOUR stash of toys and use something new!

Thanks for popping in!  Now hop along and see what my friends created for you ... and have a stampy day!

Gathered Wheat - Kylie's Trip Achievers Blog Hop


Happy Blog Hop Day!
Each month my friends from around the globe and I post projects made exclusively with current Stampin' Up! products.  We hope to inspire you to try something new.  Leave us a comment and let us know what you think!

Here is what I came up with ....


Fall cards are by FAR my favourite ones to make.  I find them SO EASY!  I love the fall colours and we ALWAYS have some great fall products to make it even easier to bring a beautiful project together quickly.

For my card I used the AWESOME Gathered Wheat Bundle.  

My colours are simple - Basic White, Crumb Cake and So Saffron.

I used the second smallest square dies from the Stylish Shapes dies.  The wheat is cut out from the Wheat dies.

I used our Splatters Embossing folder, our Linen Twine and our Elegant Faceted Gems for some added texture and interest.

Easy Peasy!  I just love how this one turned out!  ... so much so that I have included it in the cards we're making in my Sept 23rd "Gathered Wheat" virtual class.  If you're in Canada you can register.  You can message me on my Tamara's Paper Trail Facebook Page.

Now hop along and see what my friends have come up with for you ... and have a stampy day!
