First of all I must thank everyone for the wonderful comments I received about my 'water' card from last week's Less is More challenge. They were truly appreciated. In fact I have a similar sort of card published in this month's Craft Stamper magazine, using a stamp of sea birds from the same company as the one I used last week. As we have to submit cards about three months in advance of publication, I had sort of forgotten about it!
Anyway the theme at Less is More this week is Hello Sunshine!
I've seen quite a bit of it on my holiday during the last couple of weeks... on a river cruise along the Danube. I had a wonderful time and met some super people.
Here is my card for this week's challenge!
I'm afraid there's only one this week, as I only got back yesterday and I'm up to my eyes in laundry!
Here is a simple die cut card, using dies from Lawn Fawn and Taylored Expressions. The sentiment is computer generated in KBA Stitch in Time. Sadly at this size the stitching doesn't really show up, but the idea was to match the font with the die cuts!
I have a few commissions to get on with so I shall be busy over the next few days, however I do hope to be back to commenting on submissions to the challenges this week!
Here is a pic of some of the members of the group on a trip around Prague Castle...can you spot me? Teal sweatshirt, white scarf?
I can thoroughly recommend this holiday!
Wow! Simply fantastic cards Chrissie!
