Clean and Simple Card

I am taking the Online Card Class Clean and Simple 2 - clean and simple is very difficult for me to do - the card looks naked but I do try and I think I did do ok on this card.

I used a heavy cream card stock for the card base.  I but a slightly smaller piece and embossed the Hero Arts Houndstooth design on it with white embossing powder.  This panel is pop dotted on the card base  The pink strip on the bottom is from the edge of a 12 x 12 sheet.  The Always a Friend stamp is from Simon Says Stamp which I embossed with white on pink paper.  It is pop dotted on the card front.  The butterfly is a Martha Stewart punch.

This sketch was from one of the classes last week.
