Sitting Here Thinking of You- Clear & Simple August Release


Today is new release day over at Clear & Simple Stamps and this month we are showcasing House Notes II.  This new set accompanies the previously released House Notes set.  I had fun working with this set, a lot of ideas came floating to mind when I was creating.  


I'm always drawn to these 2 colors- light blue and dark blue just always seem to be the perfect pair. It's funny how I don't make a lot of boy cards but these are 2 of my favorite colors.  I paper pieced my couch by stamping the Wheat background onto my Trendsetter Blue paper and then stamping the couch over that.

One of my favorite cards I created for this release is being featured over the iPhone app today-if you don't have this app, it's a great tool for card makers and can be downloaded here.  Here's a sneak of it:
