Cards Galore Design Team Project.

Hi everyone...me again!  This is my second post today and there's still one more below this...sorry, but I've been busy, lol.

This card is for the Cards Galore Challenge for March, which can be found here.  Please go and have a go.  It's a new challenge and I think it will grow and grow.  The sponsor this month is Squigglefly and the winner will get to choose three items from their shop.

The theme for March is Clean and Simple...so here is my clean and simple card:


As you can see, it's pretty clean and it's pretty simple...and that's a big challenge to me, lol.

I have gone into my MCS software and used backing papers from Bearly Mine to create the base.  I have printed this onto a piece of A4 card and then cut it so that it measures 8x8 which I then scored and folded to make it an 8x4 card.  I have glues a piece of ribbon to cover the join where the papers meet, and added a flower I made using my Spellbinders dies and a button.  The sentiment (The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams) was stamped, cut out and distressed before being added using foam pads.  They don't come much more simple than that!

Hope you like the card and that it and the other Design Team Members' cards over at Cards Galore gives you the inspiration and encouragement to join in.  Go on...give it a go!
