This one is so simple, I stamped in Denim Adirondack added a sentiment and heat embossed with Clear EP, there's some feint stamped crackle done with Tumbled Glass, which isn't showing much in the photo, as I wanted the look of old porcelain. I matted onto cardstock inked with the Denim to keep the shades the same and a white base card. I don't usually do 'clean' (most of the time because I usually get a grubby finger mark on white) but I think this one works.

Think you might be seeing a bit more of this stamp, but probably not so clean!
Have a great weekend,

Haha, Avril... that sounds JUST like me and is the exact same reason I rarely do clean and simple! My workspace is rarely clean enough, either, even though I do wipe it all down when I'm putting things together.
I love the clean design here - blue and white is always striking and I love off the edge stamping. Great buy! I look forward to seeing the coloured version/s...;-)

That's a great stamp, and stamped in blue it reminds me of Old Delft pottery, beautiful! Hugs, Valerie
That sounds like a perfectly reasonable reason for buying those lovely stamps Avril!
The flowers in the pretty shades of blues puts me in mind of some rather famous antique crockery and makes for a really lovely card. Perfect for our June themes at Stamping Sensations and Penny Black and More, many thanks for joining in at both.

This is gorgeous Avril. It's a great layout and you've definitely achieved the look of old porcelain, it looks great stamped in the Denim, which is still one of my most used ink pads. Have a great weekend, Sandra x
The stamp is amazing and you used it beautifully here! A wonderful card Avril!
Hugs, Susi

That's an amazing stamp, Avril, and I love how you've stamped it all in blue, though I bet it will look equally fab coloured. I really like the elegant simplicity of the design. Thank you for sharing it with us at Stamping Sensations.

Oh Avril, loved your TioT For the Boys collage. And this card is so pretty. You did so well not grunging it up lol. I am so paranoid about ink on my fingers so I chuckled good along with you. Something about Tim's blues that are so wonderful. xoxo
Gorgeous creation, thanks for joining Stamping Sensations, good luck.
Happy crafting
