Less is More
I have not made many of these and I love the look and the simplicity after looking at other crafters creations. This is mine.

Hi Chrissieann,
ReplyDeleteIt looks funny writing that, because that's me too!
Welcome to "Less is More".
I have just had a quick look at your blog to see that this type of card is a far cry from your favoured style of cardmaking. It must feel rather scary to have so little on your card, but you've got it exactly right!
The only way that I could see a chance for refinement would be to put either the sentiment or the image absolutely central... neither one is quite there at the moment.
It a fabulous submission and we'd be delighted to see you back for next week's challenge! Swing by next Saturday and join the rest of the LIMettes!
Fabby creation, love it

Hi Chris
ReplyDeleteGreat to see you [escet your vlock...Im a Spurs fan lol]
Your card is super, specially as it;s out of your comfort zone. I think the tree could have come over a tidge, the sentiment seems to lend itself really well to the shape of teh tree so over slightly ay have worked
Great work nonetheless
