Less Is More week 11

This week at LIM the LIMettes are challenged to use acetate!!!! OMG - I've only ever made one card before using acetate. It was OK but nothing special. But I thought I can't really just pick and choose the weeks I want to enter (well I suppose I could!) so I gave it a go and this is my card.

TBH I ruinied it when I added the glitter to the dress (which was a last minute idea after I had stuck the circle to the acetate!) but hay ho, I wasn't going to start again as it took me ages anyway getting the right part of the stamp in the circle and sticking the gems on!! I won't make that mistake again!

Thanks for looking.

Less Is More week 10

This week over at LIM, we are challenged to make a one layer card with the focus on the sentiment. Now that's what you call a challenge!! Anyway, I gave it a go and this is my card.

I've stickled the heart shapes within the sentiment and added the the rhinestone swirl because the card looked really bland without something in the corner!!

It's not quite as CAS as I normally do for this challenge, and there's possibly a bit too much bling, but fingers crossed it's still ok! I'm sure Chrissie and Mandi will let me know if it's not lol !!

I'm off work at the mo for Easter and so is my daughter so we've both made a few cards today. This is one of Chloe's makes.

I think she takes after me as she loves most kinds of craft as do I.

Thanks for looking.

Less is More Week 6

This is my entry for week 6 of the Less is More challenge blog. It is the first time I have made a one layer card but I really like it - even if I do say so myself!!

All the hearts are chocoloate brown (except the red one obviously lol!) even though they look black in the picture.

All comments greatly appreciated!

Thanks for looking.

Birthday cards

These cards are for a friend who asked me to do a selection of 10, mainly female birthday cards. These are the first 2 and I'll post 2 a day over the next few days.

These cards are very simple and are both made with a pearlised blank card base with just a few little bits added and a sentiment stamped with Stazon ink.

I love the CAS style - I hope my friend does too!!
