Hello there.

Today's Simple Sunday Card was inspired by this photo that I came across on Pinterest.

For this cards I just lots of stamping and a few different colors of ink. The simple part about this card is there aren't many layers. Aside from the white card stock base and the black card stock strips this would be an easy card to whip up in 5 minutes.

I love the inspiration photo. I love the dark shadows and I might recreate this card to more closely resemble the inspiration photo.

That's it for today.

Sweet Crafting.

Supplies: 

Stamps: Rosie Posie (PTI), Notting hill (7Gypsies), Cardstock: Plum Pudding, True Black (PTI), Ink: Smokey Shadow, Berry Sorbet, Harvest Gold (PTI), Orchid Opulence, Tempting Turquoise, Pink Passion (SU!)

Artsy Addicts Kit Project: Heavens to Betsy

Hi there.

Angee Lee Carter here with a quick card for you. I was chatting with Marion yesterday and she totally inspired me to get out one of my old Artsy Addicts kits and get crafty. Here's what I came up with.

I happen to love this card just because I used so many of my supplies that I'd purchased over the past few months but hadn't even opened. Call me a stamp collector. I buy lots of stamps because they appeal to me in some way but many of them have never seen any ink. Sigh. Yes I'm that crafter. I tend to go back to the same couple of stamp sets that I've fallen in love with.

So my resolution intention for 2012 is to ink up those un-inked stamps. Are you a collector or a crafter, or a little of both? Let me know in the comments and I might just have a little something to send one of you!
