Today's card is a clean & simple one using Fall-to Layout #57. The Clean & Simple blog has become one of my absolute favorite blogs - their sketch style just really speaks to me and is so much less overwhelming than sketches with lots of layers and embellishments.I cut a 3 3/8" square of PTI white cardstock and then randomly stamped a flower from PTI's In Bloom in Summer Sunrise, Dark Chocolate and Aqua Mist. By the way, in case anyone was wondering, I am SO happy with the new Aqua Mist formula! With the old style, I hardly ever used the ink because it would fade so much and just didn't look right. But this new stuff is awesome!!
When I was satisfied with the stamping, I cut it into nine 1 1/8" squares, which I then mounted on 1 1/4" Aqua Mist squares. I stamped a sentiment from PTI's Mixed Messages on the center square in Dark Chocolate and then adhered all the squares to the card base, which is a 4 1/4" square. Quick and easy!
This card is absolutely gorgeous Jess! I love how you stamped the background and then cut the squares out. Beautiful! And thanks for the thoughts on the aqua mist ink!
