Hi friends!
I'm here today sharing a quick CAS one layer with you. Well, quick and quick... This was one of those cards that started somewhere and ended in a result nothing close to the first version -even the stamps are different! My primary inspiration comes from this week's Less Is More: One Layer with the theme of leaves. I own several leaf-stamps but none of them quite spoke to me this weekend. The reason for me not liking my leaf stamps right now is probably how I've used them previously -almost exclusively for fall... And I was in no mood for a fall card! Finally I found a super duper old tree and leaves- themed stamp set by Gel a Tins, a stamp company no longer existing if I'm right. I think the stamps looked great paired with a spring-themed Verve sentiment stamp and voila, a card design (that felt currant!) was finally ready!
This is a very simple card with basic masking for the snow bank and just plain stamping for sentiment and images. I used 3 different green inks for leaves and also winked the leaves in the end for shine. You'll see the shine better if you click the photo larger.

ReplyDeleteWhat a gorgeous CAS design Nonni, and I hope spring comes soon:-)
ReplyDeleteI don't know what you had planned initially, but I do like the version you ended up with. Great inking, it grounds the tree so it doesn't look like it's hanging in midair. A simple but effective detail.
ReplyDeleteThis is lovely! Such a tranquil and elegant scene - the tree and leaves stamp set is gorgeous. Thanks so much for playing along with us at Less is More :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a sereen feeling, Very beautiful made.
