We're home from delivering older son to University and, of course, I had to check out LIM and the 1,000 card challenge. Well we didn't quite get there for the 1,00 entries on Less is More but it wasn't far off:). This week there is a sketch to follow and my card is almost a CASE of Mandi's inked square. I used an Inkylicious tree stamp and sentiment, with a Clarity maple leaf. The backgrounds are Distress Inked (spiced marmalade, mustard seed, barn door) and I used Sepia Versafine for the stamping. After several goes at stamping the sentiment perfectly level and not stamping it too hard (it's a clear stamp) I can only refer to the wording on it lol! Incidentally the square is flat on the card, the shadow in the picture taken after dark makes it look like it stands out proud of the surface...
My card is for the following challenges:
Less is More - sketch
Stamptacular Sunday - just sayin'
Allsorts Challenge - keep it simple
CAS-ual Fridays - mostly monochromatic plus brown
Crafty Catz - autumn
Gorgeous card Anne
