I Forgot!

Hello! And Happy New Year!

I am so very excited and honored to announce, that I have joined the Less is More Design Team! Woot!!  This is my first post as a LIM Designer. When I first began blogging, I was all about the layers and embellishments. When The Less Is More Challenge first opened, I had never tried and was quite terrified of CAS design. I began to play, and as time went on, I got the hang of it and fell in love. Now it is largely my cardmaking style.  I am so happy to be part of this amazing team of crafters. Here we go!


Water in any of its forms...ice, snow, mist, liquid...

Our Guest Designer is our October 2018 winner: Viv of Daizy-Mae's Crafty Blog. Viv's designs and coloring skills are fantastic! Treat yourself to a visit to her blog. You will be so glad you did.

For my card, I used Hero Arts Enjoy the Journey stamps and dies to make this punny belated birthday card. I created the water with Hero Arts Dark Teal Liquid Watercolor. I stamped the ship on watercolor paper, colored it with Zigs, die cut, and placed it on the watercolor background in the aperture.

Please head on over to the Less Is More Challenge Blog, see the awesome creations the Design Team has created for your inspiration, and come play wiith us! All challenge details are available on the HERE.

(giggle) I absolutely adore your sense of humour Stephanie and this card really shows what a fun person you are. That is one fantastic pun! The sails on your ship are so delicately coloured to give look of them being filled with the wind and your watery backdrop is just perfect. A fabulous debut as a LIM designer. Welcome to the team and have a fab weekend my friend xx
