With Love card

Hi there friends, I hope you are all enjoying a  lovely Easter. As it's Saturday yet again....  (where did March go to?) I am sharing my  'Less is More' card today.   It's a colour challenge this week and......    

Predominantly Black! 

"Your whole card doesn't have to be all black and 

you may use a little of another colour, but whatever

 you add to your design, even if it's minimal, should

 be mainly black.

So think silhouettes, monochrome, ombre, chalkboard

 technique... there doesn't have to be a lot of black...

 if your design is minimal, it just needs to be

 the predominant colour."

This is what I came up with, come and have a 

closer look.....well after reading my usual rambling

 below first if you so wish ;)

ps. I am busy cooking today as we are having 

the children and grandchildren over tomorrow.

I tend to cook for an army too, just cannot help

 it.

 My daughter once invited other people

without telling me. She said 'Well I knew

 there would be enough food....and there was lol!

Savoury quiche now in oven and about to start my

huge fresh cream triple chocolate & salted
 caramel merangue ( lots of

 small choc eggs on  top).

 Already made some small choc nests with

 choc eggs on. Mango salsa, jasmine rice, and 

Neiman Marcus starter to do yet.
Will do the rest tomorrow, wish me luck.

Oh and I can't find a thing in my craft room

after doing  a major sort out arghhh! Ooh

and I now have my new camera lens too,

whoopee!!!!

Happy Easter my lovely friends :)

Sympathy card

Hi bloggers, just a quick card today. Had no 'puter for most of today  as men were chopping down a tree next door and had to turn the  electric off.It has been an eye sore for years now, very tall and sooo  many cables in amongt it. We were always worried it might pull  down our mains cable. It had been trimmed a while ago but not  at the top where the problem was.Our neighbours will be so  relieved the elec people decided to take it down after two  years of  them asking. Sorry rambling again drat it ! Anyway here is my second effort for 'Less is More', a colour challenge and...  

LIME & BLACK

ps.I had almost finished making this card but decided on a change of  sentiment at the last minute. One of my crafting friends died suddenly  last week ( who I have never met) but will be so missed by the forum  we both belonged too.Isn't it strange how you can be so sad and miss  someone so much, even when you never met them irl. She always left  such lovely comments on my cards and  she will be really missed by us  all.I think of you all as good friends even though we will probably  never meet . Crafters/bloggers/LIMettes are such lovely/ sweet/friendly  people, know that you all have a special place in my heart.This card  is dedicated to Sandra,one very lovely lady.I hope to send it to her  daughter ( also a fellow card maker) & family.
