Clean and Simple Class

Day 1

Yes, I'm a week behind, and I'm going to be OK with that.  There were exactly 1,000,001 things I needed to do before attempting to sit down and create something for last Monday's beginning of the class in which I enrolled. 

I love sketches, so this was the perfect way to kick off the class.  Kristina gave us three to work with, and I challenged myself even more to make three cards using the same type of paper.

Here's what I came up with:


I like the Clean and Simple look and philosophy, but sometimes I like to take it one more step and add a little something extra to the card - IF I have time.  So on the first card, I added some stitching.  On the second, I added a layered button, and on the third card I heat embossed the sentiment and then ran the panel through with an impression plate. 

Here are a few close ups:


So, now I'll move on to Day 2 and 3 and see what I can come up with!

Thanks for visiting My Happy Place!

These are three wonderful cards. I think my fave is the first, because I love Little Bitty Bird so much. I think I am almost caught up with the class, but there are still things I have missed. Thank goodness we will always have the links.
