Default LSC138 - Quick and Elegant

Thanks Cammie for hostessing last week!

I've been crazy busy this week and have needed cards right away. So quick has been a necessity! I hope you have fun with this. Maybe your cards will be so quick that you'll need to make more than one!

Keyword: LSC138

Stamps
one floral image (stamped once or generation stamping - repeated stamping without re-inking)
one swirly type stamp
sentiment (optional)

Paper
solid or patterned paper
limit your layers

Embellishments
ribbon

Quick Tools (Optional)
punches
sponges
paper piercer
Cuttlebug for dry embossing

Gallery Submissions

If you are new to the challenges, please feel free to do this one or ANY of the challenges at any time. There is no time limit. They are not races to see who can do one first, nor are they contests of any sort. All the challenges are simply to provide inspiration and to get us stamping!

Hmmm, my swirls are limited, so it'll be hard to do this one without CASEing you. I'll see what I can come up with!

I used some Bohemia papers, because I find that with a gorgeous paper, you don't have to add much to make a nice card:

I dont know how elegant this is, but it sure is cheery!

Default Quick & Easy

This card took just a few minutes to make, yet it has a lot of pop. I think I may use it for a camp.

Enjoy looking and thanks a lot
