Old Stables Crafts

Off to Morocco

I seem to be in the mood for simple cards at the moment, probably because I have spent a few weeks working on some more complex and involved projects and want to have a look at some examples that are a bit cleaner and uncluttered. It may also be because I am starting a new round of face to face classes this week, with a real mix of ladies, some who have some previous experience, and some who are real beginners.

Today’s project is about as simple as it gets with one large image stamped off the top mat a few times, a small sentiment and then a smaller image stamped inside the card. A bit of washi tape, a mat of Designer Series Paper and we are done; you really can’t get much simpler than that, but I still love the result. How about you? Do you prefer the more involved projects, or are you happier with the cleaner lines of these types of card?

The bonus with these two cards is that they would both work for men, young or old, which is always good, as they really are a challenge sometimes.

I hope you like them.

Back at the gym today with the wonderful @susie_fr Back at the gym today with the wonderful @susie_frances_fitness  Going through Chemo is no reason to give up on my fitness and being at the gym makes me feel so much better. I am being realistic and we have reset my Personal Bests for during this time in my life. But each week back at the gym is increasing those Personal Bests, which is great for the ego. It's all about being realistic.

The Perfect Pear Online Exclusive Suite has caught The Perfect Pear Online Exclusive Suite has caught my eye, especially the amazing paper. When you want something to do when you just want a quiet afternoon with some distraction, fussy cutting some of the images is the perfect thing to do. Add a sentiment from the stamp set, and you are ready to create a stunning card. #oldstablescrafts #lizyuille #sttcchallenge #stampinthroughthecatalog #handmadecards #stampinup
