I created this card for the Clean and Simple Challenge, "One Button Will Do," at Splitcoaststampers.
Although the clean and simple style is very popular, it probably isn't my stamping strength, so I have decided to add this weekly challenge to my calendar in hopes sharpening my skills!
I knew this sweet Kitchen Sink apple would be perfect for this project!

I love it! You've done a great job keeping it simple. (Definitely not an easy task.) I'm such a sucker for buttons, so you know I'm lovin' this card. Great job!
ReplyDeleteVery sweet! I love that little button flower! What a great idea to try this challenge. I could probably stand to give "clean and simple" a try sometime, too!
ReplyDeletePerfect card and love the apple as the focus of this clean and simple card. Love the simple strip of ribbon as well. I think you nailed this challenge.
ReplyDeleteThis is wonderful Lynn!! I LOVE the layout and the ribbon with the button.
ReplyDeleteYour apple is just perfect!! What a beautiful thank you card Lynn!! :)
ReplyDeleteSo classy and clean Lynn, Love it!
ReplyDeleteLove that apple! I don't think you have to practice that much with the keeping it simple...love this card. Thanks for leaving a comment on my blog about the bloom card with the little girl. I used both copic and Tombow markers. I have about a dozen copics only, not totally convince I LOVE them. Have used Tombow a long time and still really like them. Thanks again. Email me and tell me where in Texas you are, my best friend lives in Austin!
ReplyDeleteYou did a fabulous job with clean and simple! I love the black and white with the pop of red.
ReplyDeleteThis card would be so cute for all my teacher friends. I kinda like the simple approach, but I know you wanted to jazz it up a bit!
