Winter Wishes card

Hi friends, here is my latest card for the 'Less is More' challenge this week.     The theme is a colour one this time, (see the picture below my card). They want us to  take inspiration from this beautiful Design  Seeds picture.     What lovely colours, trust me to have used that  colour last week too......why does that always  happen  ;)       Anyway here is my card, come and have a  closer look........well after my usual ps. that is!


ps. I am late posting my card this time as I have  been busy getting the house ready for Christmas etc. We decided on a smaller tree which will go on top  of a lovely antique table we have.      With three grandchildren under 3 I thought it best  lol.It's up now and all the decorations too whoo hoo!
      We had  them all over at the weekend so  hence I am  playing catch up once again!        All presents bought now at least just got to wrap them all.  Christmas cards finished  too just got to address those now .....and relax!      Our son has sold his house again ( last sale fell through) and they have found another house (even nicer than the  last one they wanted too).        Fingers crossed it all goes to plan now. Then we can  move nearer to them next year we  are hoping. I also  hope  to have some other good news to tell you very  soon  ;)        

I used Glamour dust on the first two letters, the ink is shades of blue and turquoise.

Summer and winter houses cards

Good morning everyone, a very grey & rainy day here today  grrrr ! It's week 93 over at 'Less is More' and one layer card  week once more.The theme this time is...... Houses At first I read it as 93 houses ( it said one layer week 93 houses), oh my ....for a brief second it went through my mind how I was  going to get 93 houses on a card arghhh ! Anyway I got an idea which images to use  almost immediately , so was very pleased. I used an old 'Beccy's Place' digi of a wooden house and also a digi  called 'Beach huts' from a  lovely friend of mine Chrissie  ( not the LIM Chrissie). I made a summer  themed card & also a winter themed card. I used soft chalking for the sun, sky , sea  and sand on the summer card, then  added a few birds freehand. For the winter card I used Promarkers on the image ( as on  the summer image) then stamped some trees and used masks for a snow drift look and added soft chalking for a weak sun too. Hope you like them both.  

New photo added as the old one didn't show the sunset
