The colours of your flag!

At "Less is More" this week it's time for another colour challenge.

Wishing to give a little variety to the colour choice this time, we came up with this idea... the colour of your National flag! We have crafters from all around the globe taking part in our challenges and so we should see a bunch of different colours... although many nations have the colours red, white and blue!

This is a new home card for my niece who moved out of her house today, but won't be moving into her new home until a few legalities have been ironed out. My brother-in-law will be sharing his home with them for a while... what fun!

The English flag being the cross of St George is just red and white and this card reflects those colours.

 Details of the stamps used are on the "Less is More" blog, do join us for this current challenge, we'd love to see your work!

Allsorts Challenge - Red Card

Penny Black Challenge!

At Penny Black this week, the challenge is to use a Penny Black stamp to make a background... and here it is. The dragonfly is a stamp from Katzelkraft (part of my birthday gifts from Mandi) and the the inks used were Razzleberry and Almost Amethyst... I think!

We had a dinner party last night..well only the main course was held at our house... the starter and the dessert were at different neighbours, I must confess it does take a bit of stress away to only have to prepare one course!

Published in Craft Stamper Magazine!

I have some extremely exciting news to share with you!

My September issue of Craft Stamper Magazine arrived today and there on page 42 was my card of the Eiffel Tower!

The really exciting part is that for the next few months, there should be more of my cards appearing in this section of the magazine. 

I saw mention of this Gallery on Jo Capper-Sandon's blog... and the rest they say is history!

I feel extremely proud yet most humbled at the same time... so watch this space!

"Less is More" six months on!

"Less is More", our Clean and Simple Challenge Blog is 6 months old today. I know I'm getting old but I really don't know where the time has gone to.
It doesn't seem a more than a moment since Mandi emailed me to ask if I would be interested in a joint venture with her to create a new Challenge Blog for Clean and Simple cards! Boy am I glad that I jumped at the prospect!
I popped over to the island to meet her to try get things sorted. We had so much fun then and have continued to have fun ever since...and have become such good friends!
The details of our Feeling Fruity challenge and our cards this week are over on the "Less is More" blog.
ABC Challenge - Z for Zoo

I have had quite a busy week so far, with my daughter and her children staying for a few days... Thursday was spent at Peppa Pig's World at Paulton's Park. Daisy had a super time!

Have a great weekend and do join us this week, we'd love to see your creations!
