A warm hello, and welcome to the Clean & Simple Stamping Blog Hop! This much loved challenge blog is celebrating a 100th sketch today - congratulations girls!!!
Every week, I watched their simply irresistible challenges gain ever more poularity, and now there’s rarely a stamper that I know, who wouldn’t play along at least once! With their beautiful sketches, I certainly understand - check the one below, if you don’t believe me!
FTL team kicks off the celebration with a brand new layout, that you’re going to fall to…

Below you can see the full list of participanting designers. I hope you’ll visit each one of them, because I know that you’ll get boat-loads of inspiration on the way. These gals are AMAZING!!
Now, there is no set up order for this blog hop. The list below is sorted alphabetically, and it doesn’t mean that you need to follow it. As soon as you pay all of the girls a visit, that’s fine! (make sure that you leave a little love on the way!!)

and link your own creation there, based on the anniversary sketch. I hope you’ll join in the fun of creating!

And here’s how I interpreted the layout… I meant to stick to the general arrangement of the elements, but ended up with this instead… lol
I lowered the ribbon line, and resigned from scallops at the bottom, replacing them with a more low-key border. There was something undone about the finished card, so I decided to pop up a part of the sentiment. How did it work?

Supplies: cardstock: Quill; paper: Basic Grey; stamp: Prima, Flourishes; ink: Versa Color (Bark); glitter: Reeves; ric-rac: Stampin’ Up!; rhinestones: Kaisercraft

I used the colours of Embellish Ric Rac Color Challenge,

and the card also goes to Card Style Classy and Elegant Challenge in the Moxie Fab World
Thank you so much for ‘checking me out’, happy hopping!

EDIT: I would like to also take the opportunity, and encourage you to play along in the Really Reasonable Ribbon Inspiration challenge. There is still time to play, and we’re giving away a yummy prize - one lucky winner will be eligible to win a $10 gift certificate to Really Reasonable Ribbon store!

Good evening (morning)! It’s been a busy day, and I was looking forward to having some me-time, once all calmed down. However, I feel quite tired already, even if it’s not even 10 p.m.
I think I should treat myself well tonight, and hit the bed at some more humanly time

Before I do this though, I’d like to show you what the me-time brought… They’re no biggie, pretty simple designs, but I do like them
I played with SSSC78, and my favvie OA Thrift Shop papers…

Supplies: cardstock: Quill; paper: October Afternoon; stamps: Papertrey Ink (Blooming Button Bits); ink: Versa Color (Olive), ColorBox (Blush Rose); vintage buttons; watercolour pencils: Belgrave; blender pen; border punch: EK Success; gingham ribbon

The sun rays look disastrous, I know… I swear I was aiming for something more subtle, but then it somehow didn’t work. Darn! It could have been such a nice effect…

Than I decided that I want to make a true CAS, and so I turned to the Stamp Simply #148 sketch (ssnotime148). Imagine this… for the first time! I can’t believe I could let these great challenges go for such a long time. lol
The colours are taken from the inspiration photo of FTTC76, and the theme - from CWC013 - Inspired by Summer.

Supplies: cardstock: Quill; paper: Jillibean Soup; stamps: Inkadinkado (scene), Flourishes (sentiment); ink: StazOn (Olive); watercolour pencils: Belgrave; blender pen; glitter: Reeves; string: Papertrey Ink

Glad to have you checking in, as always! Have a lovely day,
