We are on the downhill slope to the weekend and I wanted to make a card for this week's Less Is More Challenge before I ran out of time :) The challenge is to use more than one tree on your design and the LIM DT made some amazing inspiration cards this week.
Here is my card:
I used a lovely tree scene stamp from Hero Arts in HA navy ink and layered it up on a Lawn Fawn stitched rectangle. I covered some card in the navy ink and die cut this cute sentiment from Lil Inkers and stacked it up on several layers. I decided that I needed a bit more interest on the card and used white embossing paste on a Penny Black snowflake stencil on the card base which gives some texture but doesn't take away my white space!
I will also link up at AtoZ Scrapbooking's Anything Goes challenge.
I hope you like my card - thanks for taking the time to stop by!

It is a stunning card! That treestamp is a beautiful one and the BG and snowhills are perfect! The paste brings it ao much alive; so much great details! x
ReplyDeleteBeautiful card, Sarah! Love that darker blue and your design is wonderful!
ReplyDeleteVery pretty and serene! I thought you had dry embossed the background but it was a great idea to use a stencil and embossing paste!
