Back Again Keeping It Simple

Well, only a quick posting this time - here is my second card for the Less Is More Challenge - Pick a Square.  This time I chose the bottom right hand square because I wanted her to have her eyes (only thing coloured - Key Lime Twinkling H2o's) stand out and look at whoever is opening the card.  I used my Sun Rays folder for the front of the card and placed her over the circular bit so that the rays are coming from the image.

I love this stamp which was a freebie with Craft Stamper and to emphasise her eyes I mounted the image on Lime Green cardstock before putting it on the main card.

Hope you like it.

Kept it Simple

Well, this morning I decided to mount a couple of rubber stamps - then a couple turned into four, four into eight - you get the picture?  Now I have quite a little pile all waiting to be stamped onto the index card ready for the laminator.  Somehow I think that is a tomorrow job.

No, it did not take me all day, I went into the study intending to tidy up a bit but one thing led to another and before I knew it I was sitting on the floor surrounded by the entire contents of one cupboard.  Couldn't leave it at one - so they all had to be done.  Looks better but I did not achieve the crafting I intended.

Anyhow I did manage to make a couple of cards for the Less Is More Challenge which I have never joined before but which I have always intended doing.  First of all I used four inchies with my new stamps (Inkadinkadoo - bought at Aintree) which were stamped in Black onto mountboard coloured with Distress Inks.   Then I covered them with Glossy Accents to make them into tiny tiles.

I had one left over so I made a gift tag

Both follow the criteria laid down for this weeks Challenge which is Pick a Square.  As you can see for my card I have chosen the centre square and for the gift tag the bottom left one.  It will be the card I am entering.  

Off to do another one.
