Hi everyone, wishing you all a very Happy Christmas & a Peaceful New Year !     It's been such a busy time for me this year. As most  of you already know I have a brand new granddaughter Lana. (See new photo!)      I have spend a few days away helping to look  after her and her little family.Mummy and daddy and Lana's brother are all doing well too.      I am also pleased to report that Lana is a little  angel and hardly makes a sound.     I miss her so much now I am back home again too. Still I got my fill of cuddles so I can't complain :)     Right onto the 'Less is More' challenge once again. All details below.......... "Our challenge this time will last for two weeks and for

 it you may choose any of our previous challenges as

 your theme, but please tell us which one you are basing

 your work on. We're sure you must have a  favourite.

There is a list of our previous challenges on the page  at the top of the blog."

This is what I came up with, Memory Box dies ( flowers & leaf), TH distress ink & a butterfly die ( one of three... not sure which make now sorry !).       I am basing my card on week 92 and the colour Pink  ( surprise surprise !!!).     ps. so sorry for the lack of commenting but the new baby took most of my time this last week.    

Nappy cake I made for Lana !

I forgot to take a picture of the card I made for her .........drat !

Partridge in a pear tree card

Good morning friends/bloggers hope you are all well. I have another 'Less is More' card to show you today.     It's a 'one layer card' this  week and the theme is........    

"The 12 days of Christmas"

"Feel free to interpret this how you wish... but we

 would like to see some connection!"

I went with 'a partridge in a pear tree' as you can see.

Silver tree card

Good morning friends/bloggers,I have another 'Less is More'  card to show you today. The theme this week is.....      

"For our colour challenge this month we would like to see some 

Metallic Element plus One Other Colour 

of your choice."     I came up with this idea, a metallic silver tree ( Memory Box die),using  some matt silver paper  & some dark grey sparkly card from  my stash. I added a clear  star gem to the tree to make it a bit  more Christmassy.       ps. less than a week until our new granddaughter arrives ( Friday), hope to have more news soon.
