Well crafting time is getting less as the school term comes to an end and my Sister-in-laws 50th birthday is at the end of this week so it's time to combine a challenge and requirement this week :)
This week at Less is More we are back to a One Layer Card and this week they want to see ....
SOMETHING WITH LEGS
I don't have many Penny Black stamps but the few I do have are mainly animals and this is one of my faves ... they are 'The Sensations'- that makes me smile ... weren't they a pop group in the 60's or 70's???
I've generated the sentiment on the computer and printed directly onto the card using a font called Fabulous 50's ... this is a pure fluke, I've only just looked to see the font name!!!
The girls are coloured with Coloursoft pencils with glossy accents applied to the bead necklace and that's all there is to it .... I didn't think my SIL would like her age plastered on the front but I can't let her get away without a reference to age at all !!
Please pop over and visit the Less is More blog so see the excellent entries and join in, even if a one layer card is outside your comfort zone, it's good to try something different :)
Mandi and Chrissie do a sterling job each week coming up with fab challenges and commenting on all the entries along with all the other Limettes .
I'll be back later to see what everyone else has made in more detail but at the moment I'm off to to take the mutt to be washed and trimmed .... bless him last week it was jabs and this week a haircut, at least he'll be cooler in this weather and I think he enjoys it really :)
Thanks for calling in to say hello and don't forget it's my Paper Smooches blog post tomorrow and a chance to win another PS stamp set too X
Fantastic card Jenny
