Hello Everyone and hope you enjoyed the sunshine at the weekend if you were lucky to see some .
My Monday morning craft indulgence has led me to make cards including one for the Less is More challenge this week which is a one layer card with the design being 'off the edge'..oh and no score lines aloud .
I looked at all my flower stamps and thought no lets do something different . I've coloured the Funstamps image with Derwent Coloursoft pencils which I decided to buy after seeing the results people get with Prisma pencils , the lady in the art shop assured me these were the same as the Prisma ones .
I really liked the blending effect and I feel I may have to add more to my collection as there's nothing like a bit of colouring in :)
I wasn't sure of the placement of the sentiment but feel this looked the best position...what do you think ?
I'm loving the challenge each week as it's giving me a reason to make cards again and dig out old stamps and stash to use in a new way so thank you Mandi and Chrissie for that .
Thanks for looking and leaving a comment...if you do :)
wonderful stamp and nicely coloured too.
