Hi friends!
I'm here to remind you of our current challenge at Inkspirational, where we want you to make clean and simple cards! To help you out, here's what we'll be looking for with your Clean and Simple designs:
✅ One main focal point
✅ Lots of OPEN space (doesn't 'have' to be white)
✅ Minimal Layers
✅ Minimal Embellishments
My card is sort of "grungy", layered CAS, but I do feel that gathering all my elements to the middle of the card creates only one "focal point"... And the color scheme is very monochrome which also tones it down. I've heat embossed the sentiment with gold powder. Sentiment stamp is by Simon Says Stamp (I've done little surgery, there should also be a Y'all in it but I cut it out), background stamp by Marianne Design and leaves are by Memory Box. The leaves are cut from a piece of water color paper that I "cleaned" a film of acetate with - I had done some water coloring with distress inks in fall colors and the left over of the inks is now on these leaves. :)
I hope to see you joining us!
Your Fall-inspired card is lovely, Nonni! The maple leaves, especially, catch my eye and make my Canadian heart smile! CAS sensational!

What a great splatter stamp background Nonni - the leaves look like they are gold embossed but I see they have been smooshed in ink - a beautiful fall card! Julia xx
