Clean and Simple Day 2


I am trying to keep up with everything.....My Clean and simple Class, some challenges, life.... - what is better as to combine some of those things? Paper smooches has this beautiful inspiration picture for their new challenge. Orange is one of my favorite colors, how can I not play?




Day 2 of the Clean and Simple class has this pretty card in it by Debby Hughes, which I would like to show you, but can't - its class property. Anyhow she reminded us that we can use our dies to emboss paper and that's how this card came to be:





And lastly this card fits the KIS challenge #6 - Dry embossing.

Thank you all for looking at my blog and leaving such uplifting comments. I enjoy them tremendously! I wish you a very nice and pleasant weekend!

Materials:  Memory Box Die - Chloe Stem, stamp: Hampton Art - Botanical, sentiment - Paper smooches - Christmas sampler. The little dots next to the sentiment are made with Stickles and Perfect Pearls.
