I am on a Clean & Simple roll this week! I liked yesterday's card map challenge so much that I decided to try another Clean & Simple idea to share with you today.
But using a different stamp set, called Enjoy the Moment. Funny, but when I won this set at a Stampin' Up! event I was a bit underwhelmed. Yes, I was excited to win something - who doesn't love that!
I liked the images but found they provided me with little inspiration.
But it's a great set, right! Every time I went to craft following my win, I would try different ideas but ended up putting the stamp set back on my shelf. Until today!
I think I figured out what was holding me back. I was trying to think browns - Soft Suede, Cinnamon Cider, Early Espresso, etc. And those colors weren't speaking to me. So I shook that off and decided to try an unusual color - Misty Moonlight! And that worked for me.
Here's my Enjoy the Moment card. It's super clean and simple and uses the Note Cards & Envelopes that were also gathering dust in my crafting closet:
