Simon Says........Clean and Simple

It's Wednesday, and that means another challenge begins at the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday blog!

This week we're asking for Clean and Simple projects!  The Design Team are all using Hero Arts products, a company near and dear to my heart!  Here's my first card, using products released in January:

supplies: white and black cardstock and various tone-on-tone design papers, Hero Arts Butterfly & Flower stamp and cut set and Hello stamp and cut set, Simon's stitched rectangle die, Juli's Garden embossing folder, buttons to match flowers

I used an older cling stamp for my next two cards:

supplies: Hero Arts Large Blossom and Live Life stamps, VersaFine onyx black ink and Hero Arts clear embossing powder, carnation layering paper, spun sugar and squeezed lemonade distress inks, worn lipstick and shabby shutters distress markers

This stamp highlights the negative image, so the background and the details of the flowers and leaves get stamped.  In this case, I used black ink and embossed it in clear, then colored in my details with distress inks and markers.

And another version that I have done previously, but never got to share on my blog, this time stamped on pool cardstock in VersaMark and embossed in white:

supplies: Hero Arts Large Blossom and Find Joy, pool layering paper, tumbled glass and shabby shutters distress markers, white embossing powder, bias-striped washi tape

Now it's your turn!  We have a $50.00 gift voucher
