Fast and Fabulous Mixed Bunch

Another Fast and Fabulous Friday?  Already?  Where does the time go?
When the clock is ticking and you just don't have time for all the extras, this card is quick and easy.  The definition of fast and fabulous.

The swirl from Baroque Motifs was stamped several times in Lucky Limeade on a Whisper White card base.  One of the Mixed Bunch blossom images was stamped in Concord Crush ink on a scrap piece of white and punched out with the Blossom Punch.  The edges were sponged with Concord ink and a basic pearl was added to the centre, then the blossom was mounted using dimensionals, onto the card.  A Thank You (from Thank You Kindly) was stamped in Concord Crush onto the card front, then a 2-way Glue Pen and Dazzling Diamonds glitter were used to accent the flower and parts of the Baroque vines.

And that's it.
Doesn't get much simpler than that, does it?

So next time you are pressed for time but you need a card in a hurry - remember that clean and simple is often fast and fabulous.

Hope everyone is looking forward to a wonderful weekend.   I know I am !

    What a GORGEOUS card!!! I love looking at your samples. I am an impatient stamper and artistically challanged so I really appreciate your 'fast and fabulous' card ideas. I will be back to see more.:o)

    1. Thanks so much Karen. And Welcome to StampWithCynthia

      I seem to have so little time on my hands some days that Fast and Fabulous is exactly what I need! So very glad you like what I've donw. Do come back and visit again (I am hoping to get back to posting more regularly now that the school year is somewhat slowing down). I hope I can create some more cards to tickle your fancy.
