Clean and Simple Card Class Header

I will never tire of the awesomeness that are the Online Card Classes! This time around Kristina Werner, Julie Ebersole, Jennifer McGuire and friends (including me!) are going to uncover the “secret” to minimalistic and fabulous cards.

The card you see above is a little sneak peek a the technique I’ll be sharing during this class! I absolutely LOVE this design and can’t wait for you to see the design I created exclusively for the class!

During Clean & Simple Card Making 2, you’ll learn new techniques and be inspired by 26+ videos and 34+ clever and creative card designs. Gather inspiration from your fellow students and Online Card Classes teachers in the forums and galleries. Then print out class PDFs to take Clean & Simple Card Making 2 with you wherever you go. Plus, with lifetime access, random giveaways and shopping discounts galore, you’ll be able to outfit your card making stash in clean and simple style.

Take a look at the details here: Clean & Simple Card Making 2!

If you’d like to WIN a spot in the class leave a comment here! I’d love to hear about what Clean & Simple techniques interest you most.  You’ll have until Tuesday, January 22 at 12:00 midnight, EST. I’ll  announce the winner on Wednesday, January 23rd!

    I love your card that you designed for class. I just do not feel comfortable with the CAS look as I do not know when I am done? Is it not enough, is it too much, is it balanced? See what I mean? Love the look, just don’t kow how to get it.

    Beautiful card, wonder what the technique will be. Thanks for the chance, I would love to take this class!

    I plan to sign up for this class regardless, but would LOVE to gift a spot to someone special if I do win. She’s hit a rough patch and this would be a nice surprise. In any case, I’d like to learn more about paring down without being plain. Creating a strong focal point and knowing when to stop. The other classes I’ve taken have been FABULOUS so I’m looking forward to this one!

    When I saw that you would be sharing a technique. I wanted to take this class. I don’t usually make “clean and simple” cards. I would like to learn how. I hope that there will be some ideas that don’t involve too much coloring.

    Oh my, what do I want to learn…how to make simple cards with a clean look that still look stylish and make the recipient ask how was that made. I so love all the classes I have taken. I just think it sparks so much of the inner designer in each of us. It also keeps me pro active in my crafting. Creating daily is so important to growth. Thanks for the chance to win. I will be in class either way. It is such a bargain. I have traveled all over to learn and this formate saves me a bundle. thanks 🙂

    Thank you Amber for giving away a spot in this awesome class! Never taken an online card class. I want to learn more about the basic elements of design and how to know which colors/patterns go together to make a perfectly beautiful CAS card!! Also how to place things on a card base and how to know where (i.e. pearls, embellishments, strips of paper, stickers, etc.)

    I would LOVE to win a spot in this class. I love clean and simple cards so much but I always end up over embellishing mine and can never seem to get the sophisticated look I want.

    What a great quick and easy card! It seems perfect for those times when you need that quick card for some occasion, yet don’t have hours to spend….yet want the card to still look special. Thank you for the chance to win.

    By the way, this is not meant to influence you at all,….your picture on your blog is just lovely and your smile is so warm & inviting. I just had to comment on that as well!!!

    I prefer making greeting cards. The inking and stamping techniques would be beneficial because I like stamping. I’m also interested in the faux layering. If you are mailing a card you can’t have a lot of layers. thanks for a chance to be in the class.

    I like clean and simple. I often just use a dry embossed front and a verse inside. Other times I just use a colored stamp on front. Would like to learn more about the style and get new ideas.

    What I’d like to know is how you know you have enough “stuff” on it. When do you cross the line from boring to clean and simple to gaudy?
