Gratitude card

Hi friends, it's Saturday again so here's another card for
the 'Less is More' challenge once again.The theme this
week is a sketch ( see below card).
 
 
I am posting it below the card as otherwise the sketch
shows in blog posts  and not my card ( if you see
 what I mean ).
 
 
This is what I came up with, PP falling hearts(?)
paper & a Waltzing Mouse sentiment. Memory Box
leaf , twine a few clear gems from my stash.
 
 
Full of a cold this week so not feeling great but at least
I got to make my LIM card :)....and relax!
 
ps. a big welcome to my two latest followers also :)

Blue and green card

It's week 79 over at 'Less is More' and this time
it's a colour and...........
Blue & Green
I think I must be psychic as last week's card was
blue and green. I seem to enter a suitable card a week
 in advance often these days !  Hmmm what do I predict next
 week then?? .....well one layer of course so that's easy lol.
Anyway here is my card, hope you like it. Have a lovely weekend
 everyone,whatever you have planned. We are just chilling this
 time before our big get  together next week.As it's my birthday
on Wed I hope for good weather too :) I am excited as I am
getting a Kindle at long last , with a load of books already loaded too.
ps. Btw. thanks Mandi  for the tip, I love that Wow embossing powder !

Pastel flower card


Another card for the 'Less is More' challenge.
Week 76,  a one layer card and......
"Three of anything that is, three colours, three images, three
 stamps, three words, the number three.... it's up to you, but don't
 forget the white space, a simple design and just one layer!"
I went for three flowers here if there is any doubt, or three things,
the flower stamp, the ink washed panel and the sentiment stamp.
I used my distress ink again, masked a panel, sponged paint on,
stamped a flower, stamped a sentiment , bit of glitter, job done.
Can't believe how relaxed I am about one layer cards
now. They used to terrify me. Thanks Chrissie and Mandi 
I have learned so much. Layout is key of course,then you have
 to get all the elements just right. Oh my I sound like an expert,
I am not lol...but feeling happier about looking at that blank
 card these days.
ps. Awake most of the night again with the old Rh Arthritis & all this
 horrid rain which make it sooo much worse. Here early again at 5.30. am
, so glad I can go blog hopping to take my mind off stuff.
Enough waffling I think, here is my card. Sorry...... moan over !!
