One layer challenge

Hello, I linked up my Good Luck card from last week to the Less is More challenge as it fitted with the opposite colour on the colour wheel theme. However it was probably a little busy to be classed as clean & simple. So I decided to rise to their challenge this week which is to only use one layer with the theme of water. I also used the colours in the Pals Paper Arts colour scheme this week. Here's what I came up with ...

You may not be able to see from the photo, but I used glossy accents on the raindrops & wink of Stella on the umbrella to give it a bit of sparkle. Unfortunately the wink of Stella came out a bit quick! Lesson learnt!

Supplies

Stamps - Clearly Besotted 'April Showers'
Inks - Stampin' Up: Daffodil delight, Crumb cake, Coastal cabana
Die - Lil Inker Designs 'Stitched Rectangles'
Other - Wink of Stella, Glossy accents

Thanks for stopping by. Take care.

Hot hot hot!

We've had some gorgeous weather but it's been too muggy in my craft room in the evenings to craft, so apologies for the absence of blog posts!

My nephew asked me to make a card for his girlfriend's birthday. They're going on holiday to Turkey so he asked for a beach style card with the Turkey flag on it. This is what I came up with ...

I'm entering this card in the 2nd challenge from Clearly Besotted where the theme is 'Seeing Spots'. I used the umbrella stamp & die from the 'April Showers' set as a parasol; the sandcastle was cut freehand & the sky is strips of washi tape.

Supplies used:
Stamps - April Showers: Clearly Besotted; letters: Banana Frog
Dies - April Showers: Clearly Besotted; Scallop: SU; numbers: Quickutz
Other - Clouds & hearts Washi tape: Paperchase
