Turquoise and green LIM cards

Hi again, just a very quick post today.Here are two more 'Less is More' cards for this weeks challenge which is.......................  

"This week it's everyone's favourite.. One Layer Cards and this week

 we would like you to use a

Coloured Card Blank

Yes that's right, none of your boring, white, ivory, black or kraft card

 blanks we want to see you add some colour.  Here are our cards for this week..."

 

 I made this  Turquoise one using some lovely pearlized card ( can't see the

shine here though I fear). I heat embossed using a script stamp then stamped

 over it using a flower stamp in black. The green one I used a tiny script stamp

then overstamped that using a leafy stamp.I  added  some glitter, a sentiment

and a couple of embossed lines.

Sun, rain, sun ,rain, here today, can't make it's mind up.........and I'm

 still coughing arghhhhh!

Blue butterfly card

Hi fellow bloggers, hope you are enjoying the weekend. We are having yet another family party tomorrow for my eldest son's  birthday.See details of food below if you are nosey.We have our lovely woodburning stove in place now,and very nice it  looks too. OH just doing tiling around it now, dark grey slate  to go with the black/grey of the fire.It was so hot when we tried the fire the other day, I think it will keep us toasty all winter now. Right onto my card, sorry for waffling/rambling again! Hope it's LIM enough, not sure if it's too 'busy' ...sorry if it is C&M. For this week's 'Less is More' challenge we have to Take 3 Challenges we can choose three previous challenge ideas and then combine them on a card. So easy peasy really. My mojo went missing today, but I did manage a card in the end. Still not sure about it but it will have to do for now, I may make another during the week......or not. Mostly stamping this time with a bit of embossing too ( sentiment & butterfly). Have a great weekend everyone, we will be knee deep in  babies again lol, not that I am complaining. Here is my card.

ps. I have been making lemon, rosemary and sea salt  focaccia bread, well starting it ready for baking tomorrow. Having that with some hot spinach , artichoke  & cheese  dip served with spicy wedges. Also goats cheese & roasted  red pepper  bruchetta with basil  Fresh melon too, can choose which  they want.That's the starters, followed by spicy lentil puff pastry  plait, new potatoes, couscous salad and seasonal  green veg with  chilli  & red pepper chutney. Followed by lemon tart & almond  toffee crunch ice- cream, served with homegrown raspberries or choc  bites. Fresh pineapple and black grapes. Coffee cake ( as requested  by son for his birthday), coffee and mints.They always fight  to take home the left  overs lol. Hope I haven't made you  all hungry now too he he! pps.

Script card 2

Here is another card for 'Less is More'  it's week 58, one layer card week
 and the theme is  .............     ' SCRIPT '
I used a script stamp ( My Paper World )  & only used part of it so it was
'off the page'. I stamped a (Hobby Art) flower first and masked it before
stamping the script.I added a (Janes's script) sentiment & a few pearlized
 dots to the flower.The ink was (Versafine Vintage Sepia) btw. Job done,
 very simple card but think it qualifies as a LIM one.
A great big welcome to all my latest followers too !!!!!!

ps. Baby Alex is now home at last !!!!, & much healthier, so we all enjoyed some
 lovely new baby cuddles......even though they were a whole week late ! To think
we almost lost this one.......doesn't bear thinking about now. So lovely to see him
home at last, his parents are over the moon too of course :)
