Less is More - Alphabet

Had a great tennis match earlier in the week and now we are just trying to dry out for a few days. I'm hoping for a clear day tomorrow for another match.  It is fun to get some competitive matches on the calendar!

We have another challenge over at Less is More!  This week our theme is alphabet.  I was going a few different directions with this one...then looked up and realized it nearly Valentine's Day and had to make a card for the husband....so I combined forces and here is the result.






This was a pretty quick card.  I simply stamped my background sentiment several times with different ink.  This was easy to because I used the Misti Stamping Tool.  I then inked up some paper with an Ombre effect and die cut my image.  I popped up on the main sentiment with foam and done!


Here's a close up of the card, so you can see the dimension created by the foam backing.

Looking forward to seeing what you come up with!

  11. What a superb card Susan! The delicate ombre colour on the word love is fab and added the one line in the background in the different colour was a super idea. Sorry I'm late popping over to see you this week - been a bit busy. xx
