Less is More - Polka Dots

A new challenge at Less is More

This week we have a really easy recipe which is simply

POLKA DOTS

As long as your design is Clean and Simple, has some white space (or its equivalent) and polka dots in evidence somewhere, it will be perfect for this challenge.

For my card I covered my base with some cream textured paper (I'm going to be in sooo much trouble with Chrissie and Mandi!) with a polka dot ribbon wrapped around.  Made 3 flowers from Mariannes English Rose die set. Cut out 2 leaves from same set and a Tim Holtz swirl, added some cinnamon stickles for a bit of glam!

Make My Monday/ PaperPlay

A new challenge at Make My Monday

This week the challenge is to create an autumnal card using the colours

ORANGE AND BLACK

There is also an optional extra to make your creation with a HALLOWEEN theme.


and at PaperPlay.....
Our challenge this week gives a nod in the direction of the upcoming festivities - "Use Black in your card/project". Now you don't have to do something Hallowe'eny for this, some of our DT have, some haven't - just let's see the colour black somewhere on your project.

 For my card I stamped a tree from Creative Expressions - Church and embossed in gold onto the black base card.  I masked a moon and stippled orange and green shades from Big and Juicy Spice, then stamped tree and horse and carriage from Chocolate Baroque Howling Moon set.  Mounted onto orange Core'dinations.

For my card I used Core'dinations for the base card and used stamps from the  Howling Moon set from Chocolate Baroque. I then stamped onto silk card from the same stamp set and brayered with Big and Juicy Hydrangea.

Less is More -Week 36

A new challenge at Less is More

Being the second week of the month it is One Layer

An easy one for you it's

The ♥ can be singular, multiple, any colour, but, MUST be a one layer card, with no additional layers stuck on, apart from the odd embellishment or ribbon!

 

For my card I used Chocolate Baroque Fantastic Florals, stamped in Memento  and coloured with Promarkers.  Added some holographic glitter to the centre of the flowers.
