After the recent card fiascoes, I decided to get back to basics.
You know, shamelessly copy someone else's design.
Hey, it works--it gets the mojo going. ;-)
So this card is a ripoff....I mean a card based on Susan Raihala's creation on her Simplicity blog.
I must say I...I mean SUSAN...did a fantastic job. I really do love her simple designs.
I didn't use anything to line up the images, I just stamped in a line as straight as I could, using the gridded acrylic block as a guide. I really like the blue and golden-yellow combination. It's very crisp looking.
Supplies:
Paper: Bazzill (blue and yellow cardstock); The Paper Studio (kraft cardblank)
Stamps: Hero Arts (Birthday Messages set)
Ink: Tim Holtz Distress Ink (Chipped Sapphire)
ETC: Glue Glider Pro
Happy Wednesday! We're halfway to the weekend. WOOT! Thanks for stopping in today!!

I started looking through your posts looking for the fiascoes- but I can't find them. Your cards are fun and your are very generous to share them with us! Anyone who gets one in the mail would be thrilled!
Wow Cynthia .. .. I wish I could stamp that neat and straight.
I thought you had stamped through a template or something.
Great finished look ... I love it!!
Love Jules xx
