Make it Simple Monday-using Pansy Petal Suite and a template

A new week and a new template.  A simple card is a great way to start off the week.

 

                                               

   

The great thing about a template is that is can start your creative juices flowing.  Today's template made me think of 9 shapes organized in rows. 

The next thing I thought of was what to put in place of the shapes and I decided designer paper would be a great thing to put into 9 shapes.  It would be a great way to show off the Pansy Petal designer paper, many designs at once.

Finally, I decided I wanted my shapes to be squares so I could put the saying at the bottom.  I also wanted to place one of the cut out pansies in the center.  That is how my mind worked with this week's template.

Make it Simple Monday-Flowering Cactus

I hope you all had a great weekend.  Are you ready for a new template and a new simple card?

Here is our template for the week.  Looks pretty simple to me.  It will be fun to figure out how to step it up.

This week I chose to use one of the stamp sets of the month.  This one is called Flowering Cactus.  I will be making all my cards this week using the stamps, dies, and designer paper.

I used 3/4 inch strips of 3 different designer papers to make my strips.  Of course, I needed a saying.  So I cut out one of the dies using Mint Macaron card stock and stamped the saying in the middle.  It does not get any simpler than that.

Make it Simple Monday-Snail Mail Suite

Here we are again with Make is Simple Monday and a new card template.

It looks pretty simple to me how about you?

And here is how I made my simple card using supplies from the Snail Mail suite of the month.

Are you wondering where I got the stamp for the saying You've got mail?

This is what the stamp set looks like when you open up the case.

Since I just wanted the saying, I carefully cut it from the rest of the stamp.  Now I can use it separately or together.  Consider cutting apart any other stamps you might have with two parts.

Make it Simple Monday-Snail Mail Suite

Are you ready for a new week, a new month, and a new Suite of the Month and a new template.

This is a pretty simple looking template don't you agree?  I had a lot of fun figuring out how I would create a card using this template.

 I knew I wanted to use the Snail Mail suite for the card.  To make it simple I decided to just focus on the designer paper. This card will focus on the mushrooms. This card looks so good as a simple card I don't know how I will step it up.  HMM Check back on Thursday to see what I decide to do.

Make it Simple Monday-Ice Cream Corner Suite

Good Morning! Are you ready for another simple card template? 

Here it is.  I challenge you to make a card using this template and post it below on this page.

                                          

                                     

Here is how I interpreted this template.

1. First, I chose Purple Posy as my background paper since it is one of the colors that is in the designer paper.

2. Next, I made my strip using 1 inch of the diagonal designer paper.

3. Then, I punched out a small circle from the cone design.

4. Finally,  with the oval punch I found an ice cream cone I liked and punched it out.

5. The last thing I did was to find a saying to use.  I figure this card can work for just about any reason I might want to send a card.

These are the supplies I used.

Product List

Ice Cream Corner Designer Series Paper [154567] $11.50

Purple Posy 8-1/2" X 11" Cardstock [150881] $8.75

Make it Simple Monday using Ice Cream Corner designer paper

Another week is here.  At least in Illinoi we are having some wonderful spring weather.  I am a little worried that winter has not completely left us.

I love starting the week out with a new template and a Simple card. 

So the template this week looks pretty straight forward.  Rectangles and a strip of cardstock.

Here is my take on this template.  I am featuring the Ice Cream Corner Suite this month. For my simple card I just used the designer paper that shows the soft cone ice cream.  I actually used both sides of the paper.  Don't you love how both sides go so well together.

Thursday I will be stepping up this card.  Think about how you would step up this card and see if our ideas match.
