It's time for a new, and the final LIM challenge of 2020. I am surely looking forward with hope about many things, to a new year. Here at Less Is More, we finish up with the dreaded or beloved One Layer Card. Way back when this challenge first started, I was terrified of one layer challenges. I have grown to be a lover.
We are generously sponsored by CASual Fridays Stamps.
Our Guest Designer is Chrissie Stokes of Simply One Of A Kind. Chrissie is the founder of our challenge, and truly the Queen of CAS design. Please visit Chrissie's blog and leave her some love. Her work is truly inspiring!
I created a card that I just loved for this challenge, but when my alarm went off on the day the card was due, I became aware that I missed the part about the one layer card requirement. I had to punt at the last minute (really) with a different card. I must say that this card was made in record time BEFORE I went to work (5:30 AM) in a very short period of time, and I am incredibly proud and amazed that I pulled it off!!! Card made, photographed and posted before jumping in the shower at 6:15!! Whew!
I used Winnie & Walter's Party On (circa 2017 - no longer available) for the string that holds the lanterns. I then used the small lantern stamp from The Party (circa 2015 - no longer available) to add the festive lanterns to the string and for the sentiment. I used my Prismacolor Pencils for the first time to color the lanterns and hearts on the string. I would say that it is pretty festive. Love the lanterns!
