Birthday Wishes card

Good morning friends, I hope all is well with you.
As it's Saturday again I have another 'Less is More'
card to share with you today.
 
 
This week we have to make a.......
 
 
 
"One Layer Card 
and we would like you to include
Splatters"
 "These could be applied in any way you choose,
 stamped, flicked, spritzed, dropped, whatever!"


This is what I came up with,first  a bit of distress
inking for the background. Then I stamped my 
image and coloured the flowers using a darker 
shade of distress ink.



 I spritzed some silver ink over it all,
 stamped the sentiment and job done.That
sounds easy I know, but we all know it isn't
........  right lol ?!?!



Have a lovely weekend friends whatever you
 have planned. I am resting mainly today, the
air quality hasn't been great here for the last 
few days and it isn't helping my Asthma or
 hay fever one little bit.



On the plus side we had a lovely day at the
 beach yesterday , our first this year. The air 
quality was much better there too.....and we had
 an ice-cream!



ps. a big welcome to my latest followers too,
 welcome aboard and thanks for choosing me ;)
