Less is More - Design Paper

Another beautiful weekend on tap!  Excited for my match this morning, then hanging with the husband the rest of today and tomorrow!  Doesn't get any better than that!

Well, the one thing that makes it a bit better is another challenge over at Less is More!  This week we are focusing on Design Paper!  Come over and join us for this challenge.  We would love to see what you come up with!  

Here's my take on the challenge...

I've had this paper from Lawn Fawn for quite some time, but haven't had the chance to use it.  I started by picking out the colors of the design paper, then going through my stamps to figure out what images would best highlight these colors.  

Here's what I came up with!  

Some simple stamping then coloring with copic markers. A fun a quick birthday card!

Let's see what you come up with!
