Simple Saturday is today and this card is as simple as it gets and WOW – think about all of the wonderful Designer Series Paper we have! Today I am using the Back to Black paper and this is a clean, crisp and classic collection!
The base of the card is in Strawberry Slush at a vertical fold. I know that I use this paper a bunch but I will say…it just works! So cheerful and fun! The whisper white base is ¼” smaller and then I layered a the designer series paper on top and this is 2 1/4” X 4”! EASY!
The Sentiment is from the Cycle Celebration Stamp Set…I love the font and I adore using up scraps! To make the banner end, I do it the easy way for me…cut it in the middle…then snip – snip to the center point.
The Black and White Bakers Twine was tied in a simple bow (these I can handle) and I attached it with a simple glue dot!
The envelope came together in a snap with just lining the "outside" of the flap and then with the help of the Stamp -a-ma-jig….a quick sentiment on the front was the icing on the cake!
Simple works…simple is FUN…go make a simple card and smile today!
Please email me if I can be of help and I do hope that you pop back tomorrow! I have a special card that I can say will make you smile…I adore the paper that I am using and I know that you will enjoy it too!
You can click here to my online store and shop from home! Have a "Special Saturday" and until tomorrow!

Good Morning Susan,
I came to comment on your card on Mary’s site and now a second card what a surprise. Both cards are gorgeous. Your use of DSP on both cards are so striking. Hannah’s picture is so nice. I’m so happy for the girls.
🙂
Love today’s card and congrats on being Mary’s guest stamper! I loved that card also. Have a great weekend!
Can I come play with paper at your house? I so do not do well doing “simple” on my own. I like your card!
Glad to hear Hannah is doing well. Her picture is fun!
Cyberhugs!
Wow two great cards and a great surprise for all of us! Congrats on being Mary’s guest stamper and Hannah looks great!
Great card! but so happy to see Hannah is happy and safe!
Susan, You are amazing your two cards are great. Congratulations on being Mary’s guest stamper.
Your cards are so beautiful. I am so glad that Hannah is having fun and being safe. Hugs, Ellen Hinds
Love the photo of Hannah and her new friends! Check out that wonderful background! Maybe you can make each them a card or a journal card with this photo for them. Wouldn’t they be surprised?
Love your birthday card! I have yet to cut into my DP – no idea of why I am saving it. Maybe I am worried Teddy will get ahold of it. The little bugger weighted 30 lbs at the vet today!
