Clean & Simple Card with Maria

Hello my crafty friends!  Maria here on the blog with you and I hope everyone's excited for the weekend!

Sometimes, creating a clean and simple card is just what I needed to relax and get rid of stress.  Coloring is very therapeutic and the perfect stamp set to color today is the Hug in a Mug stamp set that I am pairing with the Dancing Feathers Background A2 Die.

I started by stamping the images on some X-Press It Blending Card and colored the images in with alcohol markers.   I used my precision snips to cut the image out since I didn't have the coordinating die.

I wanted some texture to the background so I die-cut some Neenah Classic Crest card stock using the Dancing Feathers Background A2 Die.  I adhered this panel on some A2-size notecard and added the focal image with liquid glue.   I finished the design by adding the sentiment that I heat-set with my heating tool.  Here's another look at the card:

I know this card is really simple, but I love how this turned out.  I hope you like it too.  Below, you will find links to the supplies used to create this project(s).
