Clean & Simple, continued...

Here is another card, inspired by the Clean and Simple Card Classes (see link listed in my last posting). A sketch was provided, but the fun part was using the "negative," left-over paper from die-cutting letters, as the card focal.

Editing this post to include in Suzanne Dahlberg's April 1st, 2013, April Fool's Day blog challenge: 

re-posting your ugliest card ever...

This one was well-intentioned (aren't they always?), following the prompt from last year's Online Card Classes' Clean & Simple. Just too much going on! And that fuzzy fibre looks like a bunch or caterpillars crawling all over the card... Needless to say, it was never sent! TTFN!

Here I used prints4animals from The Stamps of Life, as well as boxes4abc for the word YOU. The dies are the old, original Funky Serif letters from SIZZIX. I inked the edges of the letters to make sure they showed up against the plain card background. I wrapped the stamped piece in some furry yarn and added a twine-threaded button. Simple but wild!
