Can you believe that "Less is More" has been going strongly for five years!
I don't know where the time has gone to!
This week there are lots of sponsors and lots of prizes so a very good reason to join in.
As with our very first challenge, it's a colour theme and those chosen this time are
WHITE ON WHITE
Here is a die from MFT, embossed with a Craft Concepts EF, part of which fits the cups of this bra perfectly. The sentiment is from a Penny Black die with additional words computer generated,
I did have a thought after I'd made this that I could have put the 'for your support' bit behind a lift up flap... maybe next time.
The sentiment here goes to all those who have supported Less is More over the years and it's truly heartfelt.
Here I am in Ocho Rios, Jamaica, last week at the beautiful Konoko Falls and Park... I do apologise for my lack of commenting during my holiday, but on board a cruise ship, there didn't seem to be lots of time!
Here's another white on white shaker card, using all die cuts. The champagne glass is from MFT, the letters are from Memory Box, Alphabet Soup with the @ sign from Cuttlebug.
Finally a wedding card using die-cuts and the Couture Creations embossing folder entitled Tied Together which I think seems so appropriate for a wedding card!
The heart is from Simon Says Stamp, the initials from Cuttlebug, the flourish from MFT and I'm uncertain of the make of the stitched, rounded rectangle.
The sentiment is computer generated in Andalus and Alex Brush Fonts.
I do hope that there will be a bumper number of entries in Less is More's challenge this week to celebrate quite an achievement!
Three fabulous cards, Chrissie. All so elegant too. I LOVE that Penny Black thank you die, and such a fun way to use the bra! Great shaker too, I must purchase more shaker elements and start to have a play, it's been years since I've made one. Sounds like you had a great holiday too :) xx

ReplyDeleteBeautiful, beautiful cards, Chrissie! Congrats on 5 years of LIM. Glad you had a fab holiday Jo x
ReplyDeleteYes I am a cruiser too and know exactly what it is like when you are away to try and get connected on the internet etc. And isn't it funny how you think you'll have all the time in the world...and you don't? Anyway hope you had a great time. Todays cards are just gorgeous. White on white is so very classy. The first one brought a smile to my face, the second one is so clever with the shaker card idea and what a gorgeous personal card for the third one. Thank you for your inspiration today x
ReplyDeleteAll of your cards are really special -- you are are funny lady too -- I do like the idea about putting the sentiment behind a flap. I love white on white. And I love shaker cards. And I have never done either one!!!! Same on me.
ReplyDeleteI have been down the same waterfall - at one time on my back! The ocean there is so beautiful!
