First challenge of 2016 for Less is More

The first colour challenge of 2016 for Less is More is neutrals and I have managed a  couple of cards!
For this card I grabbed a few neutral shades of ink from my Stampin' Up stash and used some circle stamps from Simon Says Stamp to create this bubbly effect!
I die cut the Happy word from Winnie and Walter from this and then stacked it onto three more layers of plain die-cuts, adding the birthday stamp from a Technique Tuesday set!
This is a simple card framing a piece of DP from Pink Petticoat and adding a sentiment from Happy Little Stampers, (the sponsor for Less is More this month).
The Christmas period has been quite busy for me as we've had our grandchildren saying with us for a while and I haven't managed to do any work in my craft room. Hopefully things will be back to normal soon!
I would like to wish a Happy New Year to you all!
