I have two clean and simple cards for you today.
I've been thinking in 3's because I've been playing with a new die and this little flower from the Clear Dollar Stamps Garden Of Life digital stamp set inspired me. It's a new digital stamp set release for the month of June. It's a beautiful set, I've barely scratched the surface using one tiny flower for my card and hope to use more of the set very soon!
The die cuts three squares in a row and I was wondering if I could use it to create a digital card. It took a little while for me to size the flowers down, flip a couple of them so they weren't all the same and put each one in just the right spot so I could cut three in a row with the die. I've grown used to using Spellbinders dies that I can see through and this one is not so it was a challenge. You can read more about the die here if you'd like to.
My second card was C.A.S.E.d from Dana at Dana's Dabbling Studio. I thought her clean and simple layout was so nice I wanted to try it myself.
I used the negative part from the die cut to draw around the flowers with a Copic 0.5 Multiliner and as you can see I need practice starting and stopping.

I LOVE this card. I said in my own post about my DT card that I am not exactly sure what clean and simple means. But after looking at your card I think it is the epitome of CAS. Simply beautiful. Thanks for joining us at Dutch Dare and I hope we'll see you again next week. Hugs, Sue (Dutch Dare DT)
I am finding myself so drawn to CAS cards lately. The all-white one makes the flowers pop so much. Really striking!
