Clean and Simple

For anyone who say the Fancy and Fussy card I posted on Saturday, this is the Clean and Simple that I intended to finish and post on Sunday morning. One small problem - I lost the image !!!!  No matter - do another, hence the delay. Didn't get much right over the weekend - I did the previous week's Fussy and Fancy challenge not the current week, lost this image and the Shutzenfest I went to on Sunday - wasn't. The Shutzenfest is in July - only a month out!!  What did I go to - can't pronounce it, can't spell it!! It was similar to the Christmas markets but with a summer theme. Lots of stages with entertainment, some tradtional, the obligatory ooompah band, some singing, some dancing, some modern. There were some amazingly beautiful traditional costumes but bird brain here forgot to take my camera. Last but not least lots of food and drink stalls. 



The papers I used are from one of Eline's cutting books I've had for ages and the image one of Eline's babies (available Here and digi images at Squiggly Fly), coloured with distress inks. The sentiment is computer generated and the run through the Swiss dots embossing folder as is the circle behind the image. The border is cut with a MS punch and the ribbon is from my stash.
