LIM Sketch 25 card

Hi there friends, I am back with another card for the 'Less is More' challenge again today. It's a sketch this time, I pondered a while then thought about doing an ombre background. Then I spied this digipaper I have had for ages now and that was kinda ombre looking so I decided to use that as my background.

I cut my top panel to resemble the sketch and added that then used a sentiment die I have had looking at me for a while now. I am trying not to buy as much craft stuff this year as I have so much unused stuff it's getting embarrassing now. Also we are saving up for a new kitchen so I am trying to be more frugal lol.

I am doing very well as I haven't bought a single craft item yet this year....(it's a record for me to last this long), it may change soon though so watch this space ;) Anyway come and take a closer look at my card. Enjoy your week whatever you have planned too ;)

Purple Hello card

Hi there friends ! I hope you are all doing ok? I am back with my very first card for 'Less is More' in the new year. This time 'LIM' have switched to a two weekly format (very sensible) I think. Also it's another colour challenge and 'Purples'.

I do love the colour purple ;) ........almost as much as I love pink.....and blue. Those are my 'go to' colours as you all probably guessed by now lol!  Ok so here is my card, I used various shades of purple then used my die cuts and a stencil for the background. A touch of my usual sparkle and a few sequins and job done !

Thanks for your visit and of course ......enjoy your week whatever you have planned ;)

Pastry base, lentils, onions, carrots, peas, cheese inside and topped with thinly sliced new potatoes and more cheese. I served it with lots of green cabbage, sweetcorn and sugar snap peas ;)

Watercolour Hello card

Hi there friends, I hope your weekend is
going well so far? It's really hot here today
25c but feels even hotter!
 
I am half way through painting my craft 
room (Moonlight White)but too hot to
finish it today.
 
I have 'stuff ' everywhere so how I managed to
 make this card without falling over it all
 I do not know ;)
 
Our back conservatory is looking good now
we have the new windows in and the roof is
being replaced on Monday woo hoo! Then
plastering and new shelves etc. etc.
 
We just have the new french doors and two
 windows to go in shortly after that too.
Anyway I am sure you are here to see my
 card so I will shut up now and show you it :)
 
(Really happy to find these beads I made a 
while ago just matched my card....happy days!)
Enjoy your weekend whatever you have
 planned ....mine involves white paint !

Washi Tape card

Hi there friends, how are things? I am late
this week with my usual 'Less is More' card.
The theme is Washi Tape this time. Hmm not 
a great fan of that but I do have a few rolls
of it.
 
Been so busy helping our son move house,
but they are in now and it's all looking good.
Couple of quick pics below of our daughter
 and DIL and the kitchen/garden. Messy ones
as I took them amid all the chaos of moving
 in.
 
 I seem to have developed a cold, my young
 granddaughter shared it I think. So not
 feeling that great today boo hoo.
 
Anyway come and see my card and enjoy your
week too. I plan on mostly relaxing and 
catching up with 'stuff' ;)

Hello Flower card

Another quick card to show you today. Made
for the 'Less is More' challenge again. We
have  to  to use 3 adjacent colours from the
 colour wheel.
 
 
I struggled to get the right colour combo
again. In the end I was happy with my
 choices though. A few card attempts went in
 the 'round' file, and my mojo seems to be 
missing lately but I did manage to finish
this card thank heavens.
 
 
Anyway come and have a quick peek ;)

Wilbur

Hi friends, just popping in to show you
another card. Wasn't at all sure about
posting it but hey ho!
 
 
More 'loose' painting again lol,
........meet Wilbur....well he looks
like a Wilbur to me anyway.
 
 
Just playing around really, I decided
he had to have hairy knees and hairy
 legs. I kinda made a heart shape on
 his chest too. 
 
 
Not great I know but I will try harder
if I do another ;) Enjoy your week
everyone...I am mainly cleaning windows,
we have soo many large ones arghh!
 
 
Also de-limescaling ...(is that even a 
word?) bathrooms etc. Well it should be.
Making two types of vegetarian pate
for Sunday tomorrow. A Vege 'Faux Gras'
and an 'Edamame' one....wish me luck ;)
 
 
 
ps. He is purple as I was going to enter
 the card for the 'LIM' challenge....then
rapidly changed my mind lol !!
 
 
Oops I forgot to show you the recent 
jewellery I made for my SIL's and myself
.....soon...very soon ;)
