My card today is a bright, cheerful hello card that was inspired by the prompt of 'critters' over at Addicted to CAS challenge. I used 2 stamp sets that you might overlook when paging through the catalog. The Choose Happy and Sayin' Hey stamp sets are both on page 24 and have mostly word stamps but have a lot of versatility for every day cards for all year round. If you journal or keep a planner the Choose Happy might be just thing to jazz up your calendars and to-do lists!
Since this challenge is a clean and simple one I stayed with a plain Basic White card base and used the rest of the colors pretty sparingly. I stamped the Hey in Blueberry Bushel and the sun from Choose Happy in Daffodil Delight and then colored it in with Blends markers. I cut the images out with a Stylish Shape square. Next I stamped the penguin (also in Choose Happy) and fussy cut it and popped it up on another die cut square in Poppy Parade.
The rest of the sentiment is stamped in Versamark on Blueberry Bushel and then embossed in white and cut into a banner with the Stylish Shapes dies.
I arranged the squares and banner roughly following one of the sketch samples on page 22 of the Annual Catalog. And it being a clean and simple card I left off any other embellishment.
All of the products used to make this card can be purchased in my ONLINE STORE.
