Gratitude card

Hi friends, it's Saturday again so here's another card for
the 'Less is More' challenge once again.The theme this
week is a sketch ( see below card).
 
 
I am posting it below the card as otherwise the sketch
shows in blog posts  and not my card ( if you see
 what I mean ).
 
 
This is what I came up with, PP falling hearts(?)
paper & a Waltzing Mouse sentiment. Memory Box
leaf , twine a few clear gems from my stash.
 
 
Full of a cold this week so not feeling great but at least
I got to make my LIM card :)....and relax!
 
ps. a big welcome to my two latest followers also :)

Baby boy 'Stork' card

Hi everyone, late posting my latest 'Less is More'
card today. We have been to see my grandson
 Alexander and just got back tonight.
The theme this time is.....
 
 
"New Baby"
 
 
I CASed one of my earlier cards but this
time here is the blue version :)
I used a stamp from a set by Lindsay Mason Designs
called 'Little Baby'.Coloured with Promarkers,
the sentiment was computer generated.
 
 
 
 
I used some Glamour dust on the baby too,
a strip of blue gingham completed the card
I used an old Cuttlebug embossing folder, I
don't think it's available now though. A few people
have asked me about it.
 
 
 
There is a  similar one I believe as a friend tracked it
 down. Not sure where from though. I think the original
 was called 'snowflake dots'........HTH
 
 
Enjoy your weekend !

Green hearts card

Hi everyone, just another quick post to show you
another 'Less is More' card. The theme this week is

'One Layer' and 'Hearts'
 

This is what I came up with for my second card.
I used two Waltzing Mouse heart stamps ( from a 
sentiment set) and some Momento 'New sprout' ink.
 
 
I then coloured the hearts using some
TH distress ink 'Peeled paint'.The sentiment
is from the same set as the hearts.
 
 
   It's called 'Say it with style' and it all stamps
  so beautifully too. Trust me you NEED this set !
 
 
 A touch of Glamour dust around the outline and a
 few dots of  'Liquid pearls' 'White pearl'
completed the card. 
 
 
 
 
 
 

ps. Still messing around making blog stuff if you wonder
why  it keeps changing lol. Now I can design my own
I keep experimenting. Enjoy your weekend !

Heart card

Good morning everyone ! it's lovely and sunny here today,
hope you have good weather too wherever you are.
 
As it's Saturday yet again it's time  for another
 'Less is More' challenge card. This time it's....
 
 
 
 "ONE LAYER CARDS  
and this week the theme is
Hearts"

 
 
This is what I came up with after a little thought.Hmmm
not sure now, the sentiment looks a tad pale . I did try
various shades and this was the one which looked best.
I used my new stamps, a Kaisercraft wording one, a 
Hobbycraft heart one and a Waltzing mouse sentiment. 
 
 
 
Of course my usual Glamour dust had to be used 
somewhere lol. A little heart gem was used to finish it off
as it just lacked 'something', hope that is allowed :)
Have a good weekend everyone !
 
ps. forgot to mention that my base card was printed
using PP Ombre paper ( nice shaded pink ) . Also
I used Momento 'Angel pink' & 'Desert sand' inks.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Another digi page with Lana !

Blue tag card

Hi friends, well this is my first card of the New Year.
I hope you are all having a good one so far 
wherever you are in the world ! 
 
It hasn't stopped raining here in the UK ,
I hope none of you are affected by the floods.
 
We live on high ground thank heavens and away 
from rivers etc. Stay safe everybody!
How appropriate that my first card of the year is a
 LIM one again too :)
 
 
For this week's challenge over at 'Less is More'
...............see below for details............
 
 
 
"It's the first colour challenge of  2014 and we have chosen
Winter Blues
We would like to see cards with shades of blue"



I got VERY inky making this one lol, I used TH  distress ink
faded jeans .

 
 Also a 'Create a Scene' Creative Expressions branch
 stamp. I coloured some brown twine dark blue to
 match the  tag I made.

 A 'Waltzing Mouse' sentiment stamp and a touch of 
glamour dust completed my card.


ps. I hope you like my new look blog, I decided to design
it all myself this time.

Also if you missed  seeing photo's of my new granddaughter 
go back two posts!
