Less is More - Color Wheel

It's been quite a bit of rain to end the week.  But am hoping to get on the courts today for some tennis!


Today we have a new challenge over at Less is More!

Not only do we have a new challenge, but a birthday celebration and our blog has a new look!

We are celebrating our 6th birthday, and there are lots of great prizes from some wonderful stamp companies! I hope you have time to join us for this fun filled week!



This week our theme is the color wheel.  All you need to do is pick three adjacent colors on the color wheel and go from there!


For my card, I focused on green, yellow and orange. Here's my take on the challenge...
I pulled out this super old stamp set from Recollections...the quality of the stamp is not very good, but it did the trick for this simple card.

I used my misti tool to stamp the candles in a row. Then it was just some simple copic coloring, stampe the sentiment and a bit of wink of stella on the flames as a finishing touch.






Here's a close up of my card.  You can't really see the wink of stella on the flames, but it is there!

Looking forward to seeing what you come up with!
