This week's challenge over at Less is More is a bit tricky!!! They want us to make a card which is one layer with STRIPES............. hmmmmm....
It's been a long time since I've used these but managed to dig one out of a heap and it's a paint shade card - usually called paint chips in the States - now it has to be one layer so I couldn't just add it to my card so to be a bit sneaky I cut it up into varying widths, stuck it onto card and then scanned it into my computer!!!! (Hope this is allowed!) lol This was then printed out and made into a DL card. I've inked my SU Wonderful Words stamp with Dusty Concord DI.
Thanks for dropping by. All your comments are appreciated.
Well that is ingenious - how many different ways can you put stripes on a single layer card eh????
ReplyDeleteA sneaky way round the one layer dilemma LOL.
ReplyDeleteVery sneaky! the colour graduation looks lovely.
ReplyDeleteLovely colours Karen and definitely thinking outside the box!!! Very effective though:)
