Daughter I-Needa sent me this Valentine's Day card a few years ago. I'm using it as an example of keeping it simple. Using two sizes of square punches, one picture stamp, and one saying stamp, one color of paper, one color of ink, and a twist of colored wire, she has created a cute card.
I first noticed that she appears to have inked her heart stamp once, then stamped with it three times. This gives each heart a slightly different look. Sponging a bit onto the background with the same color, she has given it interest. Adding a piece of colored wire for texture gives it a finished look.
February is almost here, and this would be a simple Valentine's Day card. However, I'm thinking I can apply this simple format to many other things. I love the idea of 'Thinking of You'. That can apply to so many.. friends and family alike. Hopefully, we think about people often... and tell them.
