Challenge #20--K.I.S.S.--Keep It Simple Stamper-- Carole's Turn



Hi, my name is Carole and I live in the UK. I’ve been crafting for about 5 years but since I discovered Copic markers I really haven’t looked back. Digi stamps are my latest favourite thing and I enjoy the challenge of having a new image to play with. I love being part of the crafting community, it really seems to bring out the best in us all, and I’m excited and very honoured to be a part of Crissy’s team.

I'm very pleased to be one of the new members of the Design Team here at Sundays With Crissy and to join in with this challenge theme of K.I.S.S. which stands for Keep It Simple Stamper. An interesting challenge for those of us who tend to get very flowery and fussy with our cards!

So this is what I came up with......the lovely image is one of Crissy's called Dance of Love, and I kept the design simple by using only one backing paper, a couple of nestie circles to frame the image, and minimal embellishments - just a couple of ribbons and chipboard corners with a little gem on each. Because the design is very simple, I used bright colours for the image and reflected these colours in the choice of paper and embellishments. I hope you like it, and you can find more details about the card on my blog which you can see here.


Now it's your turn to show us your K.I.S.S. cards!!  There will be five free digi's given to one lucky challenge participant who will be chosen by Random.org at the end of the month! You may now use images from any company and still be included in the draw for the blog candy prize! Those who use one of Crissy's images, either from her rubber or digital collections will be entered twice in the draw. But please respect the rule of no more than three entries per month. Otherwise your entries could be deleted.
The challenge runs throughout August, and you can find uploading instructions and the inlinkz option on Sarah's post HERE.
Thanks for looking, and happy crafting!
Carole
