Something different...

Here are some cards that I made recently.

 

I used the My Favorite Things Dienamics Blueprints 14 and 22.

Hero Arts stamps were used for the backgrounds.

More for Less Is More!

This is my third entry for the Less is More colour challenge. I think I am starting to get the hang of this clean and simple look and  I no longer feel the need to reach for a paper bag to breathe into! lol! It is hard to know when to stop though, I mean how little is really enough? You don't want your card to look  like you haven't made any effort at all do you? It is funny that I have to work harder at making these kinds of cards than I do the ones with all the layers and bling! My copics are feeling sad and neglected!

Sorry for the photos it is really dull and dreary here today...overcast and rainy but warm!

Card Recipe:
Cardstock: white cardstock
Paper: -
Stamps: Hero Arts Doodle Flower Patch, Stampin' Up Flight of the Butterfly (Sentiment)
Inks: Versafine Black Onyx
Embellishments/Other: Kaisercraft pink pearls, Stickles cotton candy

Thanks for looking...have a great day!
