Less is More Week 11 - Acetate and updated!

See end of post for update!

Hi All

Over at Less is More this week we are challenged to use Acetate.  Not something I've used a lot of!
For my card I stamped Hobby Art Trees with Stazon on the front of the acetate and then splodged (technical term!) alcohol inks - red pepper and lettuce on the reverse. I stuck the acetate to the card with stiki glue pen gluing behind the trees - thanks for the tip Mandi, I think finding a way to adhere acetate is what has put me off in the past.

Thanks for looking

Update

Followed Chrissie's advice and put a frame around the image.Much easier to hide glue and it sets off the picture!

Less is More Week 10 - One Layer

Over at Less is More this week the challenge is One Layer with a sentiment being the main focus.

For my card I have used a computer generated sentiment and a Tim Holtz mini stamp inked with Adirondack Slate.

Sorry everything is so "white"! A bit rushed today!

Thanks for looking

Less is More Week 9 - A Touch of Red

This weeks challenge at Less is More is a card with a touch of red.  Chrissie and Mandi have done some lovely examples on their blog.  Now, I'm not really a "red" person (probably cos I've got red hair!), but here's my effort. Stamp is from Clare Curd Doodles stamps, embossed in gold, painted with cosmic shimmers and finished with a colored gem on each flower.  I did have a lovely little rub on sentiment but it decided to rip the card rather than release from the sheet so had to stick one on instead!

Thanks for looking

Bah Humbug Week 13 - Cards to make you giggle!

Over at Bah Humbug this week they have asked us to make a card that makes you giggle.  Well, sadly I couldn't find anything nearly as cheeky as Anne's card, but did find these cute reindeer from See-D'S.
