Hello and welcome to the first ever Clean and Simple Instagram Hop (CAS Instagram Hop for short!)
Each month, a group of creative friends will gather on Instagram to share a clean and simple card. We have some guidelines for our cards, not no one is going to be too uptight about them! Some of our guidelines are:
*minimal layers
*white space can be any colour
*minimal coverage of the card front
*keep elements close together
*use pattern paper, embossing, ink blending and bling sparingly
Many people don't realize that Clean and Simple is more than a card making style.. it's also a design style that has strict rules.
Anyway... our theme for our first ever hop is SNOW
I created a rectangular space on my front panel with some low tack tape and I did a little ink blending to create a little more interest for my card. I did some shading, making it darkest at the bottom, blending lighter and lighter as I got to the top of my rectangle. I did a simple die cut JOY using a snowflake for the O and added a bold stamped sentiment to finish it off.
*Ink: Versafine Clair Nocturne; Tim Holtz Distress Oxide Salty Ocean
