We have a Sketch at "Less is More" this week and here it is!
Simplicity itself !
My first card uses up lots of bits that have been hanging around. I used part of the box which my Kindle came in (the card with the letters on), some hessian, a little cardboard for the feathers and a sentiment I must have made ages ago and not used. The white space on this one is the sacking!
I used one of my new MFT dies to cut the lower section of this one, added some DP from Pink Petticoat and a couple of tiny hessian hearts. As with the previous card the front panel was cut with SSS stitched rectangles.
This last one is my personal favourite.
Again I was using up bits and pieces. I saw the paper in the drawer and decided to use the anchor die to team with it. It's from Creative Time dies who sadly do not ship to the UK.
More details on the LIM Blog.
I just read on their website that they DO now ship to the UK!!
This one fits in with the nautical theme at Time Out too!
Our grandchildren will be with us again this coming week, so we will probably be going out for lots of 'Mysteries'. We used to do that in holiday time with our own children and they loved it too! I wonder where we'll get to? It's a Mystery!
Unusual to see a sketch but this one would be good for DSP, like the texture in the first card and the last one would be perfect for the challenge at TO...love to see you there x
ReplyDeleteA trio of fabulousness Chrissie! All super chic and brilliant. What a shame the anchor die isn't available in the UK it's certainly a spectacular one! Enjoy your week of mystery tours with the grand kids. Sarah x

ReplyDeleteLots of lovelies from leftovers, Chrissie. I especially like that anchor and it's accompanying chain.
ReplyDeleteAll 3 are beautiful Chrissie but I especially like the first one because it is so special. Is that a piece of burlap on the top part ?
