HereÂ’s a very simple clean and simple card that I did for the Less is More challenge.
When I work with images likes this with so much solid rubber areas I find that inking with a brayer works best and using a stamp positioner gives me the option to double stamp if needed and in this case I did.
For the solid layer I used the brayer again to color white cardstock, this works great when you donÂ’t have cardstock to match.
The butterflies are Cheery Lynn dies and they are attached with AleeneÂ’s tacky glue. The pearls are self-sticking.
I used the Martha Stewart scoreboard for the embossed border.
I used the Perfect Layers tools from Perfect Paper Crafting to cut the even borders. Use any brand craft knife or rotary cutter for cutting. A tutorial video can be found on the company site.

Wow! Fabulous card, Roxie! I love the coverage you get on that large image. I know I've tried one with far less success - I'll have to try your brayer trick.
Gorgeous colour choices! That bit of black really pops the card . Wow!
