Grab Life by the Beans, Clean & Simple Card Class Registration

CleanAndSimpleGraphic

Good morning friends. Registration is now open for my Clean & Simple Card Class starting on April 22. Register today and see the pre-class cards uploaded to the gallery!

Today's clean and simple card is for the Paper Smooches Stamps SPARKS Challenge and it's a great sketch. I was able to whip this card out in less than 10 minutes. That's my kind of card. I used the adorable Cyber Cafe stamp set. I used a fairly monochromatic color palette to keep it simple. For my marker shading, I used a pretty heavy hand on the left side of the coffee cup as my light source and then blended it out to the right side of the cup. The fun thing about this card was that I used stuff that was already lying on my desk and didn't grab any materials whatsoever. I think I need to clean up a bit. 

I hope you like my card.
