Welcome to my new follower, Sally of Sallybitz2. Thank you for joining me.
A CAS card today to join in with a few challenges. The Less is More Challenge this fortnight is 'Tangerine, Aqua and White', so I decided to use these colours for my card.
A CAS card today to join in with a few challenges. The Less is More Challenge this fortnight is 'Tangerine, Aqua and White', so I decided to use these colours for my card.
I used 'Spiced Marmalade' and 'Peacock Feathers' Distress Oxides through a stencil for the border down the side. A friend recommended a set of inexpensive soft makeup brushes from Amazon for using with inks and stencils. After playing with hers recently at a local craft day, I invested in a set of my own and I'm impressed with how easy they are to use. The bird and flower were die cut from snippets with a set of Cut and Make 'Mini Tropical' dies. The sentiment was a stamp from the Happy Little Stampers 'Doodled Flowers' set, stamped with the 'Peacock Feathers' Distress Oxide ink pad.
I am joining in the following challenges:

Wonderful card. I love the combination of the stenciling and the die cuts. Thanks so much for playing with us at Less Is More.
