Simply Simple Classic Male Card Using the Greatest Adventure Train Image
July 04, 2024
Today we're designing a Simply Simple Clasic Male Card Using the Greatest Adventure Train Image. Tuesday we used this same stamp set for another quite simple card...if you missed it check it out here click here for Tuesday's card.
The Greatest Adventure is an Online Eclusive stamp set which just means you won't see it in the catalogs but only when you go online to shop the online store. You can order this set using any way you normally place orders--through me your demonstrator or online yourself.
This is the set we are using...
Here's today's creation...
And a bit closer look...
When we have such a predominant image it is often best to keep the card design simple--that way we don't get too much going on and end up with clutter or overpower the design with the background.
We chose the Balmy Blue ink for today's card and kept the coordinating layer in Balmy and White. Just giving the focal point a couple of layers does the trick. The white background layer used the Dashing Designs embossing folder....which is perfect for this--it gives us a bit of texture but doesn't pull our attention away from the main design.
The rhinestone embellishments give a bit of sparkle & enhance the overall layout, but again, do not draw the eye away. Simply Simple.
Leaving the focal point without a greeting gives us a wonderful card that we can hold in our stash for just the right occasion...you can add your sentiment inside when your occasion arises.
I'll give you step by step directions for today's project below followed by the supply list.
