Good afternoon bloggers/friends ! I have yet another
'Less is More' card to show you today. Can you tell I
am loving this sketch ( see pic below) lol.I am using
TH distress inks again. I used an Adirondack dauber
in Pearl ( metallics) to add some silvery highlights to the
'surf'.It looks very shiny and silvery irl. I added my usual
hand drawn birds again ( becoming a habit now that). I
wondered about adding some 'sand' to this scene but
instead imagine you are in a boat and seeing the waves
crash around you and seeing the skyline too :) Oooh is
anyone else quite worried by that image now??....pass the
life jackets lol ! Feeling a bit better today I am glad
to report,thankyou for all your good wishes.Have a
lovely 'rest of the week' too :)
ps. A big welcome to my latest follower also, welcome aboard.

Good morning, a nice sunny start here today, I hope you have
sun too.Here is another 'Less is More' card, really enjoying
the sketch this week so thought it would be rude not to do
more :) I bought quite a few new stamps recently so you will
be seeing lots of cards with them on now I fear. I thought this
pretty flower was such a nice simple stamp and couldn't wait
to use it. I see my lovely friend Lynne also used it, so forgive
me for posting mine too but I had made it already and it
seemed a shame not to post it. I also bought some cheap
watercolour paper, it is a bit thin but I quite like the effect you
get using it. It's a bit like crepe paper don't you think ? I used
TH distress ink and left some of the edges white for texture.
Stamp (Hobbycraft), sentiment (Jane's script), lots of heat
embossing (Seafoam white) and liquid pearls on the flower
tips (White opal). I tore a piece of vellum for the little strip.
ps. feel terrible today with this horrid cold and didn't sleep
much grrr!

Hi again, here is another 'Less is More' card for your perusal.
This week we have a sketch to follow. I will add it at the end
as I find it shows up in your feed instead of your card........
has anyone else noticed that ?? I used some TH distress inks
and dropped some water onto it for a different look.Then I
added a sweet little new fairy stamp ( Magic fairy Hobbycraft),
the sentiment says 'The magic of you' btw. I used another
new stamp on the little added strip too ( Ornate flourishes
Inkadinkado). Have a lovely Sunday everyone, I think I am
coming down with a cold again, sore throat atm. Serves me
right for letting our grandson ( he is one) kiss me twice on the
lips,but it was so unexpected I was quite overwhelmed. He has
only done that to his daddy before it seems, so very sweet
of him :) Of course he was starting with a cold ,didn't know that.
I think my OH also has it ..........drat!!! I am off to make some
soup now,hmmmmmmm leek and potato I think.Take care :)
