Clean and simple is not one of my strong points. Leaving my cards clean and simple actually create anxiety in me, so I fuss and fuss until I feel better.
Today I challenged myself to create something that is clean and simple - for me. I hope it meets the criteria for the challenge at The Paper Players
The art piece was die using a stitched rectangular die and matted with a larger Balmy blue stitched rectangular die cut. This was added to a matching Balmy Blue gingham background leaving a large border of white. This was added to a Whisper White card base.
The sentiment and corrugated mat are from the April, 2019 Paper Pumpkin kit.
Along the left side I added a double bow made from the Balmy Blue Organza ribbon (retired SAB)
Supplies Used:
Stamps: Wonderful Moments, Paper Pumpkin April 2019
Inks: Black Memento, water colour pencils, Balmy Blue
Papers: Balmy Blue, Whisper White, Balmy Blue Gingham DSP
Accessories: Stitched rectangular dies, 1/4" Balmy Blue organza ribbon (retired SAB)

Maria you are not alone in finding clean and simple a challenge! I love your mum-to-be card though; the layering is subtle and the attention to detail in aligning the gingham pattern makes it very easy on the eye. And you couldn't resist adding a bow too! Thanks for sharing with us over at The Paper Players this week!
CAS is very difficult for me, too! This is such a precious card. I know the Mommy to Be will cherish it. I love the paper pieced dress! So happy you joined us at The Paper Players this week! XX
