LIM week 16 ( card 3)

Here is my third and last ( I think) card for the 'Less is More'
challenge again.My simplest of the three I think. I used a
circle template to colour with distress ink and chalks. Then
I used my branch stamp ( details on last card) and leaves
from the same stamp set too. The first time I used the leaves
they didn't look right at all, I did better this time thank heavens.
I added three punched butterflies in black and added some
gems for sparkle.May add a sentiment at a later date but
liking the white space atm.Have a lovely week everyone &
thanks for all the lovely comments as always :O) Viv xx

Love the way the branch isn't solidly stamped in places, give it such depth
Fantastic!
