Less is More Challenge

By
So the ladies at Less is More this week want us to - 'Take Three Challenges' - we go back to the archives and choose 3 past challenges, combine them and make a card. I chose

Week 1 - Black, Pink & White
Week 2 - Flower or Tree
Week 12 - Off Centre

Here is my card


I started off with a 5" x 5" white card base and I have used the Fabulous Florets stamp set from Stampin' Up. I have stamped my leaves in black ink and my flower in pink - Pretty in Pink actually! My flower has been attached using 3D foam pads - here is a close up


Hope the weather is better with you that with me at the moment - we are marooned at the top of our hill, there's floods at both ends of our lane so we are not going anywhere for a while! Will just have to stay in and craft instead!
Thanks for looking - see you soon - Jacqueline xx

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
