Cut it Up Challenge #309 ~ Clean and Simple

Hi Crafty Friends,
Our theme for Cut it Up Challenge #309 isCLEAN AND SIMPLE.
I love layers and lots of die cuts so this is sometimes a difficult theme for me but I also love seeing cards with simple, clean layouts.  I've used Pinkfresh Studio products for this A2 card.I couldn't help myself!  I did add extra layers to the sentiment and popped up the butterfly LOL.

Products used:

Fluttering Butterflies Suite, washi tape, stamp and die set

Folk Edge Circles Dies.

I hope you'll play along.  Be sure to visit our Facebook Community page where we feature our Design Team's Top Cuts for each challenge.

Pearly Sparkles January 2024 Challenge ~ Clean and Simple

Hi Crafty Friends,Happy New Year 2024.
I hope you've had a wonderful holiday season.  Ours was full of family, friends, and so much food!!!I guess I wasn't ready for the new year because I completely forgot to write my post for thePearly Sparkles January Challenge - ugh!  I think I'll blame it on my advanced age or too much food and family over the holiday.  Well, here it is.  Our challenge for January is Clean and Simple.

I stenciled the leaves onto Betterpress paper using inks and a layered stencil from Pinkfresh Studio.

Then I ran the paper through my Platinum 6 using my Betterpress system and a press plate from Spellbinders.  I used Ranger Archival ink for the pressing.  I'm going to make more using different color palettes. 

I hope you'll play along with us.

Hugs,

Larelyn

Cut it Up Challenge #272 ~ CAS (Clean And Simple)

Hi Crafty Friends,
There's a new challenge up at Cut it Up Challenges.
This is one of my favorites, CAS (clean and simple.)
Using lots of color and/or die cuts always produces a wonderful project but sometimes you really want something simple and understated, which can also be quite elegant.
For today's project I used an Altenew 3D embossing folder and one of LaLa Land Crafted newest sentiment dies - that's it.  I think using a quality card stock and gold foil adds just enough elegance.

I hope you'll play along with us.  Just add your card using the link above.
By the way, if you'd like to be considered as a guest designer for one of our upcoming challenges, please contact me at cutitupchallenges.gmail.com.
Thanks for visiting.
