The Less is More challenge this week is:
We haven't had many sketches since beginning "Less is More". It's
difficult to think of original designs which can be interpreted in a
variety of ways, yet keeping to the Clean and Simple ethos.
We have one for you this week which consists of band down the card which in turn is sub-divided into three sections.
You may add a sentiment if you wish and the sketch can be rotated if that orientation inspires you.
We must be able to spot the original, simple sketch however.
As Mandi is still working really hard on her new business Chrissie is hosting solo again this week.
For my card I've taken a Michael Powell stamp - don't you just love them - and stamped onto card. I've then used Distress Inks, both pads and markers, to colour in the image. I cut out the image and split it into 3 and mounted onto matching card. I then took an A5 pearlised card, scored two lines and added another strip of card across, then popped up the three images on top. The sentiment is a favourite from Hobby Arts stamped in DI Peacock Feathers.
Thanks for dropping by.
Love your MP scenes Karen, beautifully coloured!
