"Less is More" - Week #265 - recipe


Another week has whizzed by and it is time for another "Less is More" challenge.  This week our card recipe is to feature/use wire.  I will admit that I really struggled with this one and I will look forward to getting some inspiration from the LIMettes, who always come up trumps!

I found some pink beading wire, coiled it around and attached it with a blob of Pinflair.  Stampin' Up die cut flowers in a couple of shades of pink were then added.  The black cardstock base highlights the wire and I added a Hobby Arts sentiment.

I would like to give a warm welcome to our three new design team members, Sarah, Sharon and Susan, so looking forward to creating with them.

    This is terrific Anne! Love the strong colour combo and a fab use of the wire. Those flowers are a bit gorgeous, aren't they?
    Can't wait to get to know you better and look forward to working with you.

    I love those flowers against the dark card base, Anne and the wire adds a great highlight and textural element to the design! I can't remember the last time that I used wire on a card so this week is definitely a challenge :) So looking forward to joining you at LIM x

    Hello Anne: I love, love this card, that stamp set is on my wish list for next month. You incorporated the wire so beautifully on your card, love the pink color of it.
    This is a great challenge that really made me think, I was puzzled all day yesterday, I didn't even know if I had any wire but I found a spool, phew!! Fun, fun challenge.
    Thank you for sharing.
