This is my take on a really Clean and Simple card. These cards are so much more challenging for me than one with lots of layers. I always feel like I need to add more. With St. Patty's Day right around the corner, I was going with a different spin on a card for the one I love. The sentiment says it all for me. I am so LUCKY to have found the most wonderful man that I call my husband. Don't get me wrong, neither of us are perfect, but we are perfect for each other.
I wanted to try a chevron pattern and used my zig zag punch to create that pattern. I used a die cut and couple of circle punches to make the sentiment. A little green bling is the finishing touch.
Recipe:
Stamps - Sentiment (Studio G)
Paper - red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple and white card stock, Amber Autumn (DCWV)
Ink - Bamboo Leaves (Memento)
Misc - Zig Zag punch (ek Success), Label Four dies (Spellbinders), gemstone crystal bling.
