BSS MONDAY IDEA - Clean and Simple

Welcome to the Buffalo Stamps and Stuff Monday Idea.

Today's idea is a clean and simple card.

We all love our embellishments, but cards with lots of embellishments are hard to

mail and expensive too.  So with the holidays approaching, I thought we would

make a clean and simple card that you can mail with one postage stamp!

Green Mirror Paper

Gold Stickles on the stars

I stamped the image on green mirror paper with Versafine Black

then embossed with clear embossing powder.  Run a dryer sheet or embossing buddy

over the mirror paper before stamping and embossing. Cut out the ornament and

popped it up on tiny thin foam squares over the ornament on the stamped and colored image.

Placed gold Stickles on the stars and moved it around with a stylus.

Lots of texture, color and shine, without adding a lot of embellishments.

Thanks for stopping by today. Have a great day.  Until later.............
