Shhhh.......It's a secret!
Well, I am going to tell you a little secret about myself. I love simple cards! There it is. Don't get me wrong, I love the large cards with layers and DP and all that fun stuff. But sometimes, I miss the time when the image was the focal point. One of the things that I love about Rosies Roadshow is that you can create an adorable scene that can be the focal point of your card. I hope you can bear with me as I amuse myself with the simple for a little while!
recipe:
Stamps: Rosie's Roadshow, Norsk Stempelblad Clear Stamps
Ink: Stewart Superior Hybrid in Burnt Umber
Paper: Chocolate Chip, So Saffron DP, Fabriano Artistico
Other: Prima Flowers, Sky ribbon, Copper brads, White Gel pen, reinkers and Twinkling H2O's for coloring.
Frame was stamped and then using the stamp-ma-jig I created the scene. A couple lemons in the basket were popped up, and the basket was popped up. Sentiment hand scribbled ( my writing is not worth beans lol)
Hugs,
Sophie
The sentiment is wonderful. This card is lovely.
ReplyDeletethis is soo pretty...the colors is fantastic!!
ReplyDeleteMe too! love your card with the delicate images and the lovely colours, and will definately be back to see more of the same please!
ReplyDeleteSimple cards are the best :). Your card looks sooo cute! I have been wanting to get some of those rosies roadshow stamps, but I have so much unused rubber as it is, so I'd better not buy anything for a while...
ReplyDeleteSo adorable Sophia!!! I've never even seen any Rosie's stamps in real life! You make them look so adorable.....stop that!! Haha!

ReplyDeleteThis is so cute, Sophia!! I love your little scene and fabulous coloring! I also love all of your stitches!!
ReplyDeleteLove your Fabulous Simple card!! I have to agree...simple can be wonderful too!
ReplyDeleteThis is such a cute card!!! Even your "simple" cards are awesome!!! All your attention to detail.....
ReplyDeleteWith cards like this I can bear with you! :) This is darling, I like simple. I just love seeing your fabulous work no matter what it is Sophia.
ReplyDeleteThis card is not simple at all, it's really artistic as all of your work! Wonderful again Sophia!
ReplyDeleteThis is a beautiful peaceful card and not at all simple, it is just great. I think in our hearts we all like the small straight forward cards, But I don't know about you when I am asked to craft a card for people they want big and blowsey, I have thought for a long time that other crafters are the only ones that appreciate how much of ourselves we put into our card making.
ReplyDeleteKeep it simple girl !!!!!
Thanks and Hugs Jacqui x
This one is super cute too, I love it!! Your coloring is magnificent!
ReplyDeleteTotally adorable!!! (I may have just said that on the card above...) :)
ReplyDeleteYou always do such a wonderful job of dressing up your cards. Even this simpler card looks somehow special with your style of creativity. I waver back and forth between simple and all dolled up but I always like a nice focal image. This is very sweet!
ReplyDeleteSophia you are so talented, your card is gorgeous, it reminds me of summer sun and fresh lemonade... mmmmmmmscrummy.... crafty hugs Tina x
