Keeping it Simple

Keeping it Simple

Let’s start the month off with something simple, shall we?

I love Tim Holtz stamps, and the blueprint style series is great to use for simple cards like this.

Stamp your image twice, once on kraft colored cardstock, and once on a good quality white cardstock. Let your ink dry (or use a heat gun to set your ink if you’re impatient) and then color the white version with your favorite medium. I used water color pencils and a water brush, but markers, paints or crayons would also work. Cut the white image out, and layer it with foam dots on top of the kraft image, and you’re done.

Quick, easy, and lovely results, what’s not to love?

What’s your favorite simple card technique?
