Clean and Simple also means quick & simple to me. I quickly diecut a Lawn Fawn Stitched Rectangle out of Distress Watercolor Cardstock. I then stamped the “hello” from the Hero Arts Stamp & Cuts Hello set in Mermaid Lagoon Distress Ink. I then waterbrushed over the word blending it out a bit and filling in the letters. Using Versafine Onyx Black ink I stamped “you are my favorite”. I used a piece of the Bazzill Kraft Gold Foil  paper from the April Simon Says Stamp Card Kit. Voila! The card was done 🙂

    Quick and easy perhaps, but nevertheless a beautiful clean and decorative card. I like the bleeding effect.
