Less is More card #432

Hi there friends, today I am sharing another card for the 'Less is More' challenge again. This time it has to be either 'Blue and Silver or Red and Gold'so I opted for Red and Gold. Just realized it matches my header too whoo hoo!

I used my new Tim Holtz deckle edge trimmer for my topper. It's sounds bit harsh and 'cranky'...(is that the right word?) when you use it btw. not a smooth action I would say but I do like the effect it gives. Impulse buy again arghh! I also used my Hero Arts Joy die and some gold card for the sentiment, the 'wishing you' part is from the same set and stamped in red. 

I also stamped the tiny holly leaves and berries (again from same set) and fussy cut and I added some roughly cut tiny holly leaves from the same gold card as an extra. Very fiddly lol, but I think it worked.

Then I added a sprinkling of red and gold sequins and a few 'dots' using a gold gel pen (hope it shows here). I edged the deckle edge parts using a red Copic pen also for interest and it was done!

So sorry I seem to be so late leaving return comments these days but running The Flower Challenge and being on the RachelVassDesign team is keeping me very busy these days alas! I do appreciate each and every comment though and thank you so much my lovely friends.

Enjoy your week whatever you have planned, thanks for the visit and any comments you may leave ;)
We are still in lockdown (week 2),.... may it end quickly! ...Stay safe and well friends.


ps. A very big welcome to my latest followers too, thank you so much and welcome aboard!

Know what you mean about comments and DT's Viv LOL. Don't worry, we all have times when we are overwhelmed.

I love your card, the deckle edge is gorgeous, especially highlighted like it is, love the joy and and the tiny holly. a Gorgeous card as always. I would think the trimmer has a lot to do to get that edge as it is.

Viv your red and gold card is just lovely - the edge detailing adds a lovely hint of red and the sparkly sentiment is, well, a joy! A real eye-catching card in the LIM gallery.
