Less Is More

Hi Folks,

I haven't managed to enter many of my favourite challenges lately even when LIM last weeks was sewing !

I always find when I have missed LIM the first one back is a real challenge.  This week its a sketch at Less Is More.  The sketch looked great - inspirational cards from Chrissy & Mandy looked great!  Had a little me time today to make my card, went to enter and that's when I read Chrissy's description of her card - I had done very similar, I was going to change, but hey ho, its made!  I hope you don't mind Chrissy!

I made a few pieces with Winter Pansy's in April after reading an article in Craft Stamper, I love the way the big pansy has come through.

Thats it for now, and thanks for looking

Gorgeous Avril. The colours end up being so soft and muted with this technique - I really must try this before all the flowers disappear!
