Some More Less is More

Susan has one of the best C&S blogs out there, she is part of the One Layer Wednesday team.  To get going on her Christmas cards, she has resolved to try to make at least two cards, each different, with every stamp set she pulls out.  I have hardly any cards made so I thought this was a really good idea. So I got my Indigo Blu stamp set that had not yet been used and made a couple of one layer cards.  The small square one is my favourite, the bling and the ink match much better in real life, the light has been dreadful for taking photos lately.  Second card is silver embossed on pale blue cardstock.  Two more cards for the pile...
My cards are for:
Less is More - a bit of bling
Simon Says - anything goes
St Luke's Charity Cards - let it snow (will try to make another couple  for them)

    Thanks so much for being our first player this month Anne- you were super quick off the mark!

    I love both your cards - I agree Susan's idea to get us cranking out the cards is a good one - I am soooo behind! The silver embossing has a wonderful frosty feel to it :-D

    Hi Ann, Hope things are ok with you :) Love these two cards, those snowflakes need nothing else to make such fabulous cards, the first is my fave colour combo for the wintery feel :) Thanks for the heads up that OLW has resumed.

    beautifully sketched. Anne, you have a neat drawing, that can be noticed from the reindeers. Well, i was thinkng that the silver ribbon would look much better if moved a bit towards right. wouldn't it?
