Less is More #19 ~ In The Frame

 Hello peeps it seems an age since I have written a blog post well actually its over a week lol. Thank you to everyone who left holiday wishes and comments for me it was very kind and very much appreciated. We had an amazing holiday with the family and extended family Cathy and her lovely hubby Dave "The Bus Man" Wallington whom we met up with on the Tuesday in Blackpool.

This weeks LESS IS MORE theme in One Layer is In the Frame.....I missed last weeks as I was on holiday and I'm gutted as I have played along every week since the beginning.

 

I have used my Sheena Douglas stamp set from Crafter's Companion and stamped it in an embossed frame using my nesties. I added a Trelles effect using my Ultimate Pro at the side which finishes the card perfectly I think.


 I coloured the images using my whispers pens and using the fine end added some grass strands for effect. a touch of stickles on the centre of the daises and voila! Please take the time to visit Chrissie and Mandi and leave them a comment they put so much work into this challenge its wonderful. thanks again ladies for another wonderful challenge.

Thanks for stopping by

Ali - such a beautiful card! I do like the frame you've used and the way you've grounded the daisies too. Fab!

Hope you had a super holiday and that the weather was kind :) It's pouring with rain right now :(

I love that stamp, was watching Sheena Douglas this morning on Create & Craft, isn't she amazing. Love your embossing, really lovely card :)

Carolyn said...

Ohhhh Ali, I just LOVE this card. I have never heard of Whisper Pens...and I am guessing they do not bleed through like the Copics so would be perfect for OLC's.I also love the daisy stamp... it looks perfect for this card.
I can't say enough about this card other than I am going to try this latout for sure.
