Pick a Square.

By
This is the sketch over on the Less is More blog this week. The idea is to pick just one of the five squares and stay within those lines.
Now it would have so easy to pick the middle square - I like being symmetrical, but this is supposed to be a challenge so I chose the bottom right hand square. Take a look
I am definitely out of my comfort zone with this. I am sat here looking at it still thinking that it needs something more - but there is no more room in my box! I think maybe I should have made my main image square too - what do you think ...........?
Thanks for stopping by, have a great weekend - Jacqueline xx.

    It is quite acceptable to add a sentiment as well, this is allowed to spill out the box.
    your card is super, lovely stamping
    Thank so much

    Lovely card and fab stamp.

    It takes a bit of getting used to - this CAS lark, doesn't it? But soooooooooooo worth it.

    This is lovely... no more is needed... in fact I think that the matted image would have been great even without the green background.... and you could certainly have added a sentiment if you wished.
    There is no absolute right or wrong it's simply a question of what is pleasing to the eye!
    Thanks so much for joining us.

Yikes - I'm a bit late posting today, but when I got into my studio this morning I had forgotten that it looked like this I had a big family lunch yesterday and 'cos our house is so small, I have to keep stuff moving from room to room in order for there to be enough space. So I got to work straight away and now my desk looks like this There is a hidiously green magnetic board complete with snail magnets that I won in a raffle - just right for altering, some wooden drawer knobs onto which I will attach some foam to use with my disress inks and my chipboard albums from last week that I didn't get round to doing. Also found when clearing from one room to another was my old jewelery display board which will soon be converted to a card display board and an old set of corner shelves. All they needed was a quick flick of a J-Cloth and a spray of Flash (oops advertising - other cleaning products are avaliable) and they now stand proudly in my craft room displaying my most recent cr

 I have decided to try and get on top of my Christmas cards early this year and so far it’s going well!!! Here is a card that has been made using the Sweet Gingerbread set - I love gingerbread houses and the stamps and matching dies are really cute. I used the sketch from  52 Christmas Card Throwdown  - this is a brilliant Christmas challenge blog (I started it many years ago with Mynn Kitchen) and it’s a perfect way to get organised with Christmas crafting. Thank for stopping by today - see you soon - J xx
