Just a note to say.....

Getting Cricky with K Andrew has her Simply Sunday challenge going on which is called I'll sing you a song. I'm trying really hard to go with the concept 'SIMPLY'! I always seem to add and add and spend hours and hours doing my cards. Then I heard her say that she spent 15 minutes putting one together (turned out GORGEOUS by the way) and it really hit me. Sometimes less is better. So here is my simply take on the challenge.



The card is very simple. Standard A2 size. I had some musical card stock that I've been meaning to use and I thought it was the perfect opportunity! The sentiment is from the Stampendous Personal Notes Mini Quad Cube. The frame is from Lyrical Letters. Added some ribbon and a flower to spice it up a little! I also inked the edges of both sheets of paper. The corner cuts are from ek success and I put some glossy accents on them. Although this card doesn't necessarily scream "I'll sing you a song", I think the sentiment and card stock kind of tie it together! I'm really happy with how it turned out!
