A Hearts Theme With Hearts Of Elegance!
Welcome to Create With Stamping Friends Creatively Simple! Connie and I create simple cards with a theme each week and for this month, this is our theme:
Do you like to create simple cards? Sometimes they can be just as challenging as a busy card full of layers. I kept this one Clean & Simple with LOTS of white space:
I used the Soft Waves Embossing Folder to partially emboss the left side of my white layer after stamping the sentiment:

Your card was simply stunning to me. I also am curious how you photographed the card with the background. Could you share? If it’s an intricate process, it’s okay (I may not have the tools needed), but I am curious.
Hi Mary, I used a background I purchased online many years ago. If you search for photography backgrounds, you should be able to find many to pick from.
