Hi everyone,
Just popping in quickly with some cards that I made today following one of the sketches from the Clean and Simple Card Making class run by Jennifer McGuire, Kristina Werner and Julie Ebersole. My heart skipped a beat when I saw this sketch.

I love clean and simple cards and I love how both of these turned out. To create the red background I swished some Fired Brick distress ink over some textured card stock, leaving some white gaps. I like the distressed look. I am entering this card into the current CAS-ual Fridays CFC#34 Challenge – Chip off the Ol’ Block. I have used Thickers chipboard glossy letters.

My second card I am entering into the current Wee Memories Challenge #82 – Mini. My card is a small 4×4 card. Simple, but cute don’t you think?
