Less is More # 490

 

Hello there,

We have another fabulous challenge at Less is More starting today. We have a colour challenge and that colour is ORANGE.

Anyone who knows me knows very well my favourite colour is orange so I might just have got a bit carried away with this challenge.

I love messing about with paints and inks aswell so I had a little dabble with the shaving foam and some acrylic paints for my background.

I made a frame using two rectangle dies and after a rummage in my snippetts box I found a small piece of this spotty paper and used it to cut two butterflies with a Memory Box die.

I thought this one made a good thank you card so used a sentiment from Visible Image.

For my second card a I reached for the alcohol inks and Yupo paper.

I'm still like a child when it comes to playing around with inks and get really excited when they turn out just how I want them to.

I made another frame and used a leaf die from The Stamp Market.

The sentiment is computer generated.

My final card is using the tissue paper method, Loll Thompson has some fantastic videos showing this technique Here. It'll be easier than me trying to explain it.

I added a bird silhouette from a die from Amazon.

I can't remember who made the sentiment stamp.

Please go to the LIM blog and check out the inspiration from the rest of the DT.

Thanks for popping in
