Clean and Simple.....maybe

Good morning everyone!  And it is.....it may be raining, but the weather man is calling for 50 degrees.  Not so good for those who want snow, but for me it's fantastic!


Sooooo, no Christmas card today, instead a nice sunny little number with a delightful little troll!  I've used three stamps today for my GDT submission for Stämpelkällan, stamping and colouring directly on the card blank.  
Stamps used:
S41- little troll
A88 - corner
T54 - Happy Birthday

I'm really quite pleased with the results, as the colours are so vibrant against that white.  I stamped with a Memento ink pad, and coloured with Copics.   Only a few gems and a dragonfly for embellishment.   Definitely clean, but simple?   Maybe.....

Now for a few challenges.  Don't forget to check them out for more inspiration.
