Clear and Simple Stamps Style Watch: One Layer Cards for Baby






A few months ago, Clear and SImple Stamps released an arsenal of baby themed products as part of Collection 2. Today, I thought it would be fun to revisit those stamps, with a couple of clean & simple one-layer baby cards.

With just a few creative elements, one layer cards can be just as memorable as those cards filled with embellishments.

For my cards today, I focused on the layout - using my stamps to create visually interesting focal images. Take a look at what I came up with for a little jump start of inspiration. Then give it a try and create a few one-layer cards of your own!

Until Later Loverlies,

Amber KG



I'm loving this one layer card featuring a "wreath" of baby pins colored with copics. You could change up the color scheme to make this more appropriate for a girl.


Next up, I have a card featuring a handsome onesie from Clear and Simple Stamps Baby Fashions set. I added a teensie bit of dimension by using the bow from the set to create a bowtie. For the banner, I revisited a technique that I shared HERE. It's super simple and you'll love giving it  a try on your own projects!


Thanks for stopping by today!! Have a great weekend.

  2. These are so cute! How did you get those pins in a perfect circle? I didn't see a stamp like that on the C&S store

  3. Hey Jana! The pin is one of the many images included in the Taglines set! As for lining up the images in a circle - I'm planning to post a video on it soon so keep your eyes peeled! Have a great weekend.
