KEEPING IT SIMPLE - KEEP YOUR GIN UP

For two weeks we're 'Keeping it Simple' at Visible Image, showcasing clean and simple cards that pack a punch, and that are quick and easy to make - just my style!

TUTORIAL

I chose the 'Keep Your Gin Up' stamp set, and clean and simple just got simpler with the coordinating dies. I started by stamping and die cutting two glasses, then adding just a touch of colour to the limes, with a hint of reflection in some of the ice cubes and down the stem of the glasses. I then placed them on my card in the MISTI stamping platform, so that I could place my sentiments. The 'Happy Birthday' sentiment from the Birthday Wishes stamp set.

Next I placed the splashes where I wanted them and stamped them with Twisted Citron distress ink. I wanted them both slightly off centre to give width and balance to the design.

It's a quick and easy way to add interest to a card, and keeping to a limited colour scheme saves time too.
