Do you yearn for the simpler times? When it was just you, your stamps, some ink, and some paper. Remember those times? Occasionally, I get so caught up in adding "more" to my cards, that I forget that
simple can sometimes make a big impact. Not to mention that is can be much easier to mass produce!
I used no embellishments on these cards. Only, ink, paper, stamps and adhesive.

Using just white CS and one other color (thyme green here), I created a simple Mother's Day card. Repetative stamping can make pretty patterned paper. If I wanted, this card can easily be added to, using some ribbon, brads, glitter, etc.
I then took the same idea and made a Father's Day card.
Simple. Quick. Unadorned. But lovely all the same.
Paper: white cardstock (PTI) , thyme CS (SU), tan CS (Bazzill)
