Less is More


This week's Less is More challenge is to take Inspiration from the Less is More Header so here is my card.


I've copied the colour scheme and the general design with music, flourishes and a main word stamp.  I haven't a decent music stamp so I used a peel off as a mask and sponged over this with Vintage Photo Distress Ink. The flourish is from The Artistic Stamper and the Enjoy stamp is from Oak House Studio both stamped in Jet Black Archival. I've just matted the words onto card coloured with Vintage Photo to make it stand out.

Rain stopped gardening this afternoon so thought I'd do some crafting instead.  Hope you like the card!!
