Less is More # 462 Occcupations

 Hello there,

I'm here to share my DT card for the latest Less is More challenge.

I've gone with this lovely digi stamp from Lily of the Valley for my card.

An interesting subject so there's plenty of scope, I'm looking forward to seeing what you all come up with.

I used various marker pens to colour the image except the spoon which I coloured with gel pens.

The sentiment is a really old Papertrey set called Autumn Abundance.

We're looking forward to seeing your creations for this challenge. Please check out the LIM blog for more inspiration.

Thanks for popping in

Emilia's 2nd birthday

 Hello there,

It was Emilia, our youngest grand daughters, birthday last monday. That girl is so blessed. Not only was it a bank holiday so everything could happen on the actual day but the weather was glorious and lots of our restrictions have been lifted so she had lots of friends and family to see her and enjoy her little party.

Alan and I went early morning so we could spend some quality time with her and the family before the madness began so missed most of the fun but we do have photo's.

 

Meely had been at a party a few weeks ago and didn't like the bouncy castle but this time they couldn't keep her off it.

Here is the card I made for her,

She loves having a kick about with her dad. I think he's getting ready to sign her up for Hull City's ladies team so as soon as I saw this digi stamp from Lilli of the Valley I had to have it. Even the hair is like Meely's.

Image is coloured with Spectrum Noir pens

The DP is The Lovely Studio

Scalloped and circle die are Spelbinders

The daisy's are from Amazon and the middles, number and heart are die cut from a scrap piece of card previously sponged with pink Nuvo Embellishment Mousse. It leaves a lovely sheen.

Thanks for popping in, have a lovely weekend.

Less is More #442

 Hello there,

Another Saturday has swooshed around and it's time for a new challenge at Less is More.

It's theme time and the theme for this challenge is,

 

 Think of all the wonderful life there is under the sea's across the world, colourful fish, huge mammals and beautiful plants. Maybe even the odd mermaid or two.

I've gone quite colourful with my card, no change there then.

I started with a watercolour splash which is a digi stamp from LOTV.

I used just a small part of it on my main panel and a tiny bit more on my circle.

The seahorse, plant,shell and starfish are cut from previously smooshed card and cut with dies from Amazon.

The  grass, Jelly fish and sentiment are from Hero Arts stamps and matching dies. I've heat embossed the grass with WOW EP.

I finished it off with a smattering of sea blue sequins.

I'm really looking forward to seeing your creations. Please check out the blog for some fabulous inspiration from the rest of the team.
