Clean & Simple x 2

I liked C&S's sketch for this week:

 

 

and since I was making samples with Big Shot die cuts, I made a card using the Flower Layer with Leaf die:

 

This also is for Our Creative Corner's challenge this week, which was to "doodle" on your card. I LOVE doodling (just ask people who sit next to me in church!!!) but it makes me a little nervous to doodle on a card---what if I mess up?  But since this is kind of a "fun" card, I doodled on ahead!  I used two layers of flowers, cut out on Riding Hood Red Patterns DP:

They were mounted on a circle of Raspberry Tart DP, then Riding Hood Red, then a scallop of Old Olive.  The leaf is also Old Olive.  I punched a circle of white and coated it with Dazzling Diamonds for the center.  My sentiment is from Say it With Scallops, stamped in RHR.  Doodles are markered with Ruby Red.

I also needed a masculine sympathy card, so decided to do another C&S style using the Sweet Stem Embosslit:

Hmmm....does this seem masculine enough to you?  I hope so!  Leaves were cut from Kiwi Kiss & Old Olive, mounted on a piece of Urban Garden & Kiwi Kiss.  Sentiment is from Always in My Thoughts.

Stop back tomorrow for another edition of Color Throwdown Challenge!!!
