Alexandra Renke Clean & Simple

As I was cleaning my studio table this morning, I found several Alexandra Renke Bookmarks, which I thought would make lovely clean & simple cards.

I started with inspiration from this week's Just Add Ink Inspiration Challenge for my yellow floral design.  The bookmark layout also calls a bit to the vertical door element in the photograph.

 

 

I added a sentiment from Simon Says Stamp CZ Designs Sassy Mama All the Feels in Fern Ink to match the green on the flower stems.

 

 

The background Dots paper is also Alexandra Renke with the finishing touch of a few gem clusters.  I am linking-up at the Anything Goes Challenge at Simon Says Stamp.

 

Next I made a sweet little baby card with the Alexandra Renke Baby Rocker Monkey Die Cut framed with the Frame Die Cut.

 

 

I had to add a few google eyes because in that dark of brown the facial impressions are lost in the color.  I finished with a few Alexandra Renke Best Wishes stamped sentiments.

 

I'm joining the CAS on Friday Challenge where the theme is Baby.   It's also a Boy Card Theme at The Paper Players.
