Challenge Title: BLANK!
Hostess: Kim (aka berlycece)
Keyword: MAR22VSNMINI1

I am a messy stamper. I get ink on my hands, especially when I am trying fun techniques. But honestly, I drop things and even smudge ink when trying to open an ink pad! My supplies get piled up because I seem to lose focus in the middle of a project. My craft room - a blessing to have one, to be sure - is a hot mess. So I have come up with a challenge for me, as well as you, dear VSN crew! The ultimate in CLEAN crafting.
Create a card that is BLANK over 75%. I am not going to measure, of course! No VSN Police are waiting in the wings! (I can almost predict who will push the boundaries!) But I am looking for truly blank - no sparkles, splashes, no ridges or ribbon, no texture no trinkets. Blank. **This doesn't mean white, per se. My card base is petal pink. Seriously, I practically had to sit on my hands to not add more to my card. It's called a CHALLENGE for a reason, right?
Now you can have the other 25% as busy, messy, layered, etc as you want! The contrast could be fun!
I look forward to seeing your fun creations!

Ok, just start off with the most impossible stamping challenge ever for me lol! My stamping motto is "more is more"! BUT....I'll give it a go. I do love a challenge after all.
Okay, this one really had me stumped for quite awhile...Clean & Simple is just not a comfortable style for me and then being limited to only using 25% of the front! WOW!...but its good to force us to stretch once in a while right! As it turns out, I'm really happy with my card! It is also a sympathy card for an SCS cardmaking friend whose Mom passed away in late February.
