I got this "I believe" stamp on clearance at Hobby Lobby a while back, and decided to make up some cards in the same design as the 60th anniversary one I did last month.
I love the clean and simple layout of this design with the pretty embossing in the background.
I love doing distressed edges by scraping my scissors along the side - it adds texture and interest to the card!
Supplies and Tools: Sentiment Stamp (American Art Stamps),

I love the combination of different fonts in the sentiment - very attractive. The distressed edges are a great way of adding texture for our Less is More tactile challenge - thanks for entering!
These are so fresh & inspiring! Great design!
These are beautiful cards, and I love the elegant simplicity. I have that exact stamp set too ☺ Would you mind if I did something similar? I think it's perfect. Great Job.
Oh I love that sentiment, the pretty pastel colors are so pretty and so is the embossing, lovely cards!

So pretty....so inspirational!
This sentiment is a great focal point and I love your CAS design! The added texture from the distressed edges and embossed background are perfect too. Great to see you at Less is More :)
Super cards. That is a beautiful sentiment and you have made a very elegant card with it. The roughened edges are a great way to make the card tactile. Thank you so much for joining us at Less is More.
