I can’t believe I’ve agonised for so long over this week’s challenge on Less is More! It’s a sketch….a simple, CAS sketch!
I think I was lacking the inspiration this week…but then it’s been a very trying (and busy!) week for the family this week!! We’ve had birthdays and parties galore. So apologies if it seems a little lack lustre! I’m sure Lady and Diva LIM throw these simple challenges at us to make us think!! Maybe I’ll have better luck in the week :-).
My intention was to make a masculine birthday card, potentially for the older generation and I think this could work. The image is from the Lovely as a Tree stamp set and the sentiment from Party this Way, both from Stampin’ Up! I’ve stamped and matted them in Early Espresso and used a bit of twine to decorate….very simple!! But I hope you like it!
I’m also entering this in the following challenges:
Allsorts {Clean and Simple}
Anything Goes {Anything Goes}

This is lovely Linda, I think the added twine is a super touch. I think the sentiment looks a little far removed from the image and to my eye I think it may have looked a little happier slightly further away from the corner... what do you think?
ReplyDeleteWhatever, it's a fab card!
Thanks so much
