A sentiment only stamp set features in today’s project – no imagery whatsoever. It certainly steps up the challenge factor when you have limited supplies, but also no imagery to work with. It took me a little while to think about the design for this card – how could I make a Simple Sunday that wasn’t just a sentiment in the middle of a lot of white space?
The finished idea came about when I was looking at the stamp set and spotted the differing fonts. How could I bring two sentiments together, but with differing fonts, to make a card? Thankfully, as my challenge allows two colours – black and one other – I could make one a different colour to the other.
After picking two sentiments that could be brought together, I focused on using the more serif font for a repetitive background. ‘Let’s celebrate’ is stamped in Tuxedo Black and the script font is in Blueberry Bushel. Rather than just cut a box standard rectangle, I decided to make it more of a focal point with diagonal, but parallel, cut edges forming a more trapezium shape to the sentiment.
SIMPLE SUNDAY RULES
– Five item crafting: The stamp set plus four items can be used to create the final project.
– A basic craft kit can be used alongside (clear blocks, scissors, trimmer, adhesive etc.)
– Only one colour, plus black can be included in the final project.
– All Simple Sundays must have the project contained on a white 3″ x 3″ matt, which is then layered onto a white card base.
