Having been a teenager during the years when the "Preppy Handbook" was popular, I have never *quite* gotten over my love of pink & green combinations!  Here's another Altenew set & another one layer, clean & simple card using Altenew's "Lacy Scrolls."  The stamping is imprecise but I just went with it because I love the look.  

Like many people, I find it challenging to create sympathy cards, but apart from birthday or encouragement cards, they are one of the most needed sentiments.  These Altenew layering stamps (here, Beautiful Day) and the Altenew coordinated ink pads make it so easy!  Simple, yet lovely.

Created this Coffee-themed card from the Simon Says Stamp February 2017 kit, using the kraft paper from the kit, the stamps, and colored pencils. Sometimes I struggle with making the placement of stamps on a stamped background look "natural," but this one worked out!  #simonsaysstamp

This is my first time entering the Color Throwdown challenge!  This "clean and simple" card is made with papers & wood embellishment from the Love from Lizi (www.lovefromlizi.com) February card kit, as well as the hello die from MFT (www.mftstamps.com) and some dark green cardstock from my stash. Color challenge was mint, green, plum & light brown.
