Week 71 Less is More


This is my design for Week 71 of the Less is More Challenge.  The stamps I have used are ones which I have had in my stash for a long time and I can't remember where they are from, I think they may have been some free samples from a magazine but I am not sure.  I used Adirondak Denim ink and I coloured part of the image with the ink from the stamp pad and a water brush.  This was my third effort, firstly I made a frame round the card with the flourish stamp and then decided it was not "Less is More" so I did just one corner, but chickened out from that thinking it was perhaps a step too far and finally did the other corner for balance.

Hooray I've managed to do it.  I'll go off and compose a card for the LIM challenge for this week and hopefully I'll be able to do that properly as well.

Trying Again

I know it has been a long time since my last post but I have treated myself to a new computer as the other one was suffering from old age syndrome (a bit like me).  I am now going to try to put a photograph of a card on my blog and If I manage to do that successfully I may be able to enter the LIM challenge again.  Fingers crossed.
