Make and Take and Stamp Club HW
I have two simple cards to share with you today. The first card was my make and take card from my May open house. I wanted allow everyone to make a simple card for free, but not make it too complicated. Enter the joys of monochromatic cards. I found this example on Pinterest. The original can be found at My Creative Corner.
And decided to recreate it using retiring colors and papers. I have to use them somehow! Each guest had the choice of making their card in Gumball Green, Summer Starfruit, Midnight Muse, Primrose Petals, or Raspberry Ripple.

The second card was my May stamp club homework. Our host is such a task master! We have to do homework every month! Oh, who am I kidding? We love it and usually end up making more than one example. I was distracted with other crafts this past month, so I only made one. Here's the sketch from Operation Write Home:
My interpretation uses a ton of current in colors and some retired DSP. I love the cool colors and pattern play. I played with the dimensions a bit (i think they are a bit off), but kept the design just like the sketch.
