Star cards

Hi there friends, hope your weekend is going ok so far? Loving this warm weather we are having here at present, should be 24C on Monday too...whoo hoo...won't last of course lol !
Anyway I am just popping by to share my latest cards made for this week's 'Less is More' challenge.
They want us to use 'stars' this time and it's also the dreaded 'one layer' card week too. Yikes! ...my first thought was whatever will I make. Then I remembered an older stamp set I have with stars in it so I made a card using a few of the stamps in that set.

Of course when I had finished it I wasn't happy.....so I had another idea....like the LIM challenge...less really is more I thought......just keep it SS...or stupid simple! I found a nice sentiment stamp I like and silver embossed it. Then I drew a few stars and embossed them in silver too. A bit of watercolour in the background and it was complete. Am much happier with my simpler card ;)

A big welcome to all my latest followers also...welcome aboard and thanks for choosing to follow me.
I am back tomorrow with another 'reminder' card for 'The Flower Challenge', do help us celebrate our first birthday...there are prizes too! Of course as always....enjoy your weekend whatever you have planned ;)

Follow Your Dreams

Good morning friends, popping by to share another
'Less is More' card once again. It has to be a
'One Layer' card this week and the theme is....
 
 
Dreams
 
 
I went with a digital card this time, adding various 
bits and then a touch of sparkle here and there.
I messed around using different fonts/colours
 and swashes until I was happy with this
 sentiment. 


A few tiny stars added another touch of sparkle
and finished it off. Sometimes a digi card takes
as long as a normal one believe it or not!


Enjoy your week whatever you have planned ;)
Btw. if you missed the start of a brand new challenge 
blog last week, look here 'The Flower Challenge' ;)
...or see my previous post!



ps. We helped our youngest son move house on
Tuesday. Had to be to a rented one as the one he was
 buying fell through at the last minute!! The search 
is on for another one now, so yet another move 
very soon. Still recovering yet....enough said lol!




Dreams, bear, CAS





Sparkle along the cloud line and on the bear, sorry hard to see here!
