This is my card for the Clean And Simple challenge
CAS329, 6-15-15, Thank You Paula
Really Simple ;)
It has two stories.
First: when I was a child, I found in my grandpas house an old box. Really old! Newspapers from 1880 (from his parents), letters from the 1920ies and more, just old treasures.
In this box was a pack of paper, "new" but like all the other things, really old.
The paper has (I still have the box!) about that color, a little bit darker with brown marks from age.
On this empty paper everything could happen! That was kind like a ticket to phantasyland in my childhood, the box and the empty paper
Second story is about the stamp.
I never wanted to start with papercrafting because I knew: it will be expensive and it will take a whole lot of space!
A friend needed an album and - you know... it began.
This stamp is from the first online-order I made.
Years ago! and I still love this stamp.
Remindes me somehow of the fragility of all the old things in my box.
Lot to read LOL, thanks for watching my little (bit ugly) card

I think these finally detailed beautiful flower stamps look lovely on their own as you have done here. Sweet card. I like the distressed edges. Your stories were great to read - thank you for sharing them!

What a great set of stories! How cool to find that box! Love the card, as others mentioned, the image doesn't need anything else. It's lovely and elegant. Mahalo for sharing both!
