Warm Hello



Good morning! I have a quick card to share with you; the final amuse-bouche for the Summer Fun release.

This sand dollar is a small image, so it is a great accent to add to many of the beach scene cards you might make. But I wanted to see if it could hold its own on a card. The result is a clean and simple card with lots of white space. My husband wasn't too sure about the more sophisticated lines of the punch being used with the casual look of the sand dollar. What do you think? I haven't done a monochromatic card in a long time, but was inspired to do so with a CAS challenge on Splitcoaststampers.

There are more samplings of amuse-bouche out there today. I hope you've found some fun and inspiration with this round of offerings, too. Stamps and paper (I almost forgot!) will be available online tomorrow right here.

I think it is beautiful. Long ago I had a set of Crane's letterpress cards that were very similar.

I think it is simply beautiful! This is the kind of card you would pay big bucks for in a card store! Think simple - Think A Muse!!
