More - Less is More.

By
I really love this week's challenge at Less is More so I thought that I would have another go.
My friend had a Clarity stamp that she had bought but didn't want (crazy lady!!) so I took it off her hands and decided to christen it today for the challenge. As you may have seen in my previous post the challenge is to choose 3 past challenges and turn them into 1 clean and simple card - take a look
The 3 past challenges I have chosen are
wk 2 - Flower or Tree (I chose tree)
wk 15 - Embossing (the sentiment which is also wk 10 is gold embossed)
wk 19 - In the Frame (I used the O as a frame for my sponged scene)
I'm sure I could make it fit a few more - but really this is a great challenge which I reckon could run for weeks. Brilliant idea Mandi and Chrissie - thank you.

    This is a really novel idea Jacqueline and you have made a super little scene in your letter O.
    Super card, I'm so glad you are enjoying the challenge!
    Thanks again.

    This is fantastic Jacqeline, I love the little scene in the O.
    I've seen Barbara demosrate this technique on the TV and I'm in awe of your talent to replicate it :)

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
