The Stamp Simply Ribbon Store - Just a Note Farmhouse Signage Card

     Hello everyone!  How's your week been?  Have you been busy crafting and creating?  My week seems like it just flew by.  I have been working on a lot of projects with resin ranging from jewelry to abstract art.  I promise I will be sharing some pictures soon.  :)  As I mentioned in a previous post we are doing some renovations to our house so we have been busy with that too.  We need to have some work done in our basement and the company came out today to look at it and give us an estimate.  I am happy to say they will be starting the work in May.  We are pretty excited to get going on this project.  I have also been trying to squeeze in some paper crafting time and working on getting back in the swing of things.  I am back to doing my regular Friday posts for The Stamp Simply Ribbon Store so I have a card to share with you today.  Before I share my card I wanted to say thank you to everyone who has left comments, IM's and emails for my life updates post.  If you missed it you can click HERE to read it.  I truly appreciate all of your kind words, prayers, encouragement and support and also for the stories you have shared with me.  I am happy to say the ointment I talked about for the fibro pain is still working!  I still have pain but the level of pain is so much lower.  :)

     Here is a look at the card I designed for The Stamp Simply Ribbon Store.  I used one of the newer Stamp Simply Clear Stamps - Farmhouse Signage.  I am really loving all of the farmhouse decor I am seeing in the stores these days.  It's very simplistic, fresh, pretty, rustic and sometimes a little industrial.  I'm really leaning to redo our kitchen in the farmhouse style when the time comes to start working on it.  The pattern papers I used are from the Kaisercraft - Sea Breeze collection.  I love the aqua blue tones in the paper pad!  I layered three different patterns of paper and I even did the stamping on the pattern paper.  

     For the stamping I used Tim Holtz Distress Oxide Ink - Walnut Stain.  The oxide inks are so great for stamping especially with clear stamps.  I actually used a total of four stamps to create the images and sentiment.  I used the Tm Holtz Stamp Platform to line up all of the images for perfect placement.  Then I added some Seam Binding Fig Beige  and tied a simple bow.  To finish off the card I added a few Simple Stories - I Am Enamel Dots.

     I created an A2 top folding card base with a piece of kraft cardstock.  I hope you enjoyed today's card share!  This would be a great card to make multiples of and you could change out the animal images.  It's such a quick and easy card to create.  All of the supplies are listed and linked below and can be found at The Stamp Simply Ribbon Store.  If you would like to see more card inspiration I encourage you to check out the Stamp Simply Blog.

     Thanks so much for stopping by today!  I hope you have a wonderful weekend!  We are supposed to be getting even more snow!!  I can't believe it!  Wondering if Spring will ever come lol.

Love, hugs, and blessings,

Heidi
