It’s Sunday, and time to play with The Paper Players! This week I am hosting a Clean and Simple Floral Challenge: Feature flowers on your Clean and Simple card. How easy is that! And speaking of easy…it doesn’t get any easier than my card today. I let the FREE Sale-a-Bration product, Sheer Perfection Designer Vellum Paper do all the work! I hope you will play along with us this week. Remember, if it is clean and simple to you, it is clean and simple to us!
The Stampin’ Schach Design Tips
This folded card measures 4-1/4″ wide by 5-1/2″ long.
- Sequins! Bermuda Bay Sequins add a touch of sparkle to the gorgeous Floral Vellum! I used Glue Dots to attach these, and added a mini-Pearl to the middle of each.
- Bermuda Bay Butterfly! The Butterfly image from the FREE Sale-a-Bration stamp set, Nature’s Perfection, was inked with Bermuda Bay ink, and stamped onto Whisper White cardstock. The Elegant Butterfly Punch was used to punch it out. How easy is that?
- Triple bow! A triple bow was created using Coastal Cabana ribbon from the FREE Sale-a-Bration item, Best Year Ever Accessory Pack. It was adhered into position over Whisper White Organza ribbon, trimmed with a snippet of Bermuda Bay sequins.
Usually I spend hours designing the cards I create, so I almost feel a little guilty that I created such a pretty card in a matter of minutes. Because of the “For You” sentiment, which was from the Mother’s Love set, I think I could use this card for a variety of occasions, from birthdays to graduations to anniversarys to weddings. What do you think? Won’t you let me know in today’s comment? Your comments are important to me, and I do read each and every one. Of course, if you ever have a question about the cards I create, or the techniques I use, I am only an email away. Until next time…

Ann, you never cease to amaze me! I love this elegant, classy card! Bermuda Bay with Black is a favorite of mine! The vellum is fantastic! XX
Another beautiful card, Ann! The black and white with a touch of Bermuda Bay is very classy and chic–very “Tiffany’s”. Love seeing the new vellum and you’ve highlighted it beautifully! Great challenge too!
It took you minutes but it looks like you spent a LOT of time on it! I love this one, Ann! The sequins are a fabulous touch. Gotta love the sparkles! Thanks for a fun challenge! 🙂
Such a lovely clean and simple card!! The pops of blue are beautiful!!
Ann I adore this card! The simple black and white floral is perfectly accented by the pops of Bermuda Bay. A stunning CAS creation!
Oh how I LOVE this Ann – I feel a CASE coming on! The vellum with the Bermuda Bay looks fabulous; and sequins, pearls and ribbon, yet still so very CAS. You have totally rocked your challenge here my friend!
Beautiful! I just love the black and Bermuda Bay..so sharp together!
Oh WOW!! I love that! I think you should have a new category though, instead of Clean and Simple, you should have Crisp and Clean because that’s what came to mind right after the Wow escaped my lips : ) Thanks for sharing. Happy puppy watch.
I am in love with your card! It is breathtaking! Love your work Ann.
This is so beautiful! I can’t believe that is vellum! It just looks amazing and works so well with the colors you’ve chosen. Great challenge!
Pearls on sequins–love the look! Pretty color combo and yes, this lovely card can be used for many occasions.
Oh, I love this! I predict that I’ll be making a few of these this week to add to my card collection for an upcoming vendor fair! I hope you don’t mind the CASE 🙂
So nice Ann! Love the way you used the vellum.
Even for a CAS card, this is striking and elegant! Love the contrast of the Bermuda Bay against the black and white! And that triple bow is awesome!
Beautiful! I love the new vellum! Details are perfect and definitely a go-to card when you need something quickly.
Ann, even when you go CAS, your creations are beautiful. The contrast of the black in the vellum DSP and the Bermuda Bay accents is really striking, love the bling of the sequences with the little pearls in the center, I just love it when you add pearls, you always know where to place them to enhance your design.
This challenge sounds like fun, I’m going to give it a try.
Thank you for sharing.
PS. How is Muffy doing?
This card is very elegant and classy looking. Can’t beat Bermuda Bay for an up scale added touch eh? Lovely. I specially like the way you added to the Bermuda Bay to the ribbon, Smarty pants you are girl. Ha!
