Happy Monday and Happy May! Can you believe that it's already May. (Unfortunately there's a Friday the 13th this month {the only one in 2016}). On to the newest challenge at Incy Wincy Designs. This time there is only one sponsor. And the challenge is "Clean and Simple"

Here is my card.

I Used the "Noah" image.  I colored it with PrismaMarkers.  The background is embossed with Cuttlebug's Art Deco embossing folder.

I like making CAS cards.  I don't usually add a lot of fuffi stuff (ribbons, flowers, buttons, etc) on my projects. 

Now it's your turn to create something.  Let's see what you make.

Head on over and get all the details. Here's what I created.

Sentiment-Computer generated

This is a large odd sized card.  It is 9 1/2" x 5". I placed the image close to the fold edge and cut around the areas that went past the fold. I fussy cut around the open edge. The inside sentiment and small image were laid out to print on the back of the card stock inside the cut edge.

This was a pretty simple card.

Now it's your turn. Grab a mug of your favorite beer (mine is A&W Root), a big soft pretzel, some sauerkraut and a bratwurst.  Have fun and create something.

Time for another entry in the Hambo Hoedown. Check it out here.  This week's challenge was to make a CAS (Clean and Simple) card using a Hambo stamp.  I used the Microphone digi I got free for playing along last week.  This challenge was harder for me, because I like to fill up the front.  But I tried my best.  In fact I made 2 cards.  They are somewhat similar. Let me know which one you like better.

Card 1

Card 2

Stuff I used:

Image- "Microphone" digital image by Hambo Stamps

Colored with Copics

card1- R35, R37

card 2- YR02, YR04, YR07

both cards- C1, C3, C5, C7

Sentiments (and stitching on card 1) created on the computer

Not much else being it is pretty simple.

I popped the microphone up on foam squares

Did you go to the Hambo Hoedown to see which one I submitted?  Hope I made the right choice.
