Less Is More week 72

Hi everyone, here is my card for week 72 of the Less Is More challenge, and the theme this week is to use something shiny. I found its quite difficult to photograph a card in a way that shows the shine!

I have used a foil edged diecut shape and stamped the poppies and the message in black Memento, coloured the flowers and edged the card using Promarkers.

The poppy stamps are by Hobby Art, diecut and message stamp by Dawn Bibby Designs.

Bicycle card 1

Hi everyone, to make this card I took a piece of white card and inked it with Tim Holtz distress inks using a piece of Cut and Dry Foam. The foliage and bicycle stamps are by Kaisercraft and message stamp by TPC, stamped with sepia archival ink.

Happy Birthday card 5

Here is a little card I made with a notelet and stackable message from Hunkydory, clear stamps from Floral Chic stamp set also by Hunkydory.

1. Colour tint the edges of the message and attach it to the notelet.

2. Stamp the butterfly and handbag with black Memento and paint using some dye ink and a waterbrush.

3. Attach butterfly and bag with Pinflair glue gel to add some dimension and highlight the flower with Glossy Accents.

With Love card 2

"With love"

The recently introduced Flower Patch and Butterflies stamp sets from Dawn Bibby Designs are beautiful and so versatile.

I made this simple little card by using a few of the stamps with Tim Holtz Distress ink on a small white card blank, picked up some of the ink with a waterbrush to add some colour to the images and used the Tim Holtz distress tool to add some colour to the edges.

Thinking of you card 2

"Thinking of you"

I really like the new Spring Fling stamp sets from Craftwork Cards.

I made this card by stamping onto an Elegance On the Edge card blank using the Butterflies & Blooms and Elegant Birdcages & Grasses stamps and inked the edges, cut a smaller Elegant shape using the nesting templates, stamped with the same stamps and added words from the Sentiments stamps set attaching it with foam sticky pads
