Week #289 One Layer

Its one layer card week over at Less Is More and the theme is French....Don't laugh but the first though was french bread LOL second thought was the Eiffel Tower...so I went with the second thought...the only saw one problem,the stamp I have of the Tower is only 2 inches. I am all for the whole Less is more thing but I thought it needed a bit of color so I went with the colors of their flag (blue white and red) I looked it up just to be sure LOL I just used my stamping block and swiped my distress markers across...spritzed a bit of water...instant color!

Stamps from BoBunny,Studio G Ranger Archival ink and distress markers

LIM Recipe Challenge - Weeks 286 & 287

the challenge over at Less is more is to use something Tactile...while I was cleaning up and trying to organize some of my stash I came upon this fabric flower cut outs (to be honest I have no clue where they even came from LOL) but I thought they would work so I stacked a couple and used a cute brad to hold them together....then I pulled out my new thank you stamp from Unity stamps and heat embossed with white embossing powder....all in all it makes a cute thank you card!

LIM Week 284

okay so I took a quick glance at the new challenge over on the  Less is More blog....for some reason I missed the ONE LAYER part the first time I read it...all I saw was the theme Time LOL so I had an idea of with a clock die cut....needless to say I had to scrap that idea but I still able use the clock as a mask and create this card...I'll just use it as a generic note card...

this is the quote I used on my card.

Colour Week #283

I had to laugh at this weeks color challenge over at Less is More , color are of our/your own kitchen. the reason I laughed is because the kitchen is so NOT my domain it's my husbands!
We have talked about redoing it since we bought this place about five years ago but every time we get ready something else needs to be done first...like busted water pipe,a leak in the roof haha I guess cosmetic stuff get s put on the back burner...Anyway our kitchen has a wide variety of colors (to say the least) but I picked the most prominent ones brown/wood tone and yellow...

Recipe Week 282

The challenge this week over at Less is More is to use a stencil...I used a pretty stencil to create a background for this Birthday card, I'm sorry I don't know who makes this stencil haha its the only one I have that isn't in its package :(
It was a very simple card but the end product looks fabulous!

Week #276 One Layer Card

Here is my take on the one layer challenger over at Less is More...theme is at Sea....
I love this image of the light house and ocean/beach/water LOL so I just had to use it....I put a piece of ragged edged card stock over the image and sponged some ink around the edge....to me it gives it almost a layered look...I really like how it turned out!

less is more 269

Here is my take on the recipe challenger over at Less is More....this weeks its Polka Dots.. I was thinking spring and lots of smiles. Its nice to have a card in my stash that I can use for anything ....

Less is more Challenge 268

If you had asked me to look out my window last week my card probably would have been full of spring flowers......but that's not to be....as I look out my windows the last couple of days all I see is ice and snow :(  we have had about 3 weeks of beautiful warm weather,I've had my windows open and everything! yesterday I was so disappointed that I had to drag my sweater out because I was cold! Anyway for this weeks challenge over at Less is more its a recipe challenge to show us What's outside your window.... Well when I look out my window I see bare trees and tiny snow flakes...that's what inspired my card!

Week 267 One Layer Sentiment

So I had what I thought was a good idea for this challenge over at Less is more....lets just say it didn't quite turn out the way I saw it in my head lol...

anyway I wanted to make a thank you card with a big bold  thanks on the front of the card,I cut out a a thanks to use as a mask and sponged around it with some ink...so far so good I liked it....then I used the flat end of a skewer dripped in paint to go around the masking again :( it did turn out how I pictured it.....it looks so messy  .... but its how we learn LOL

So I took my idea in a different direction same thanks and out lining but I used my silhouette pens instead and I think this makes a cute thank you note card

less is more CITRUS

This weeks challenge over at less is more is a color challenge "CITRUS" now you didn't need to use fruit but I thought it would be cute and I truly thought I had a stamp for it LOL but I was wrong.....but since I had fruit on the brain I had to figure something out so I created my own version of lemon,lime and an orange on my silhouette and just cut them out and pieced together....

Less is more Week 263

So I decided to play again over at the less is more challenge blog...this week is a one layer card they would also like you to include a stem...this was also a good reason to work on my coloring, I used water color pencils....I couldn't resist adding some paint splatters at the end,they don't show very well in the photos but look great in person!

thanks so much for coming by to take a peek!

 

Less is more white on white

I don't think I've ever played along with the challenges over on the less is more blog but I thought I would give it a shot today. 
It's a color challenge of course and what we would like to see is
WHITE ON WHITE(Accents in metallic or B/W are perfectly acceptable)

I tried to keep it simple....I'm not sure if I went to far with the flower lace or not!
