Less Is More - White Space?

Lots going on today, including a new challenge over at Less is More.  This challenge is all about white space that is not actually white.  This was a bit challenging for me as I really like to use white or beige for most of my cards.  However, after trying out a few things, I decided to go with yellow and red.



I started by stamping my sentiment. I then cut a few hearts from pink cardstock and added a bit distressed ink.  I wanted one heart to pop out so I cut it from glitter paper.

I then used the inlaid die technique to place the pink/red hearts down then popped my glitter heart on foam tape.




Would love to see what you come up with for this challenging challenge!

Supplies:
  • Bazzill Cardstock:  Candy Hearts, Sour Lemon
  • Glitter Paper
  • Versacolor Satin Red Ink
  • Reverse Confetti:  Tons to Say
  • Lawn Fawn Dies:  Hearts

  2. This is fab Susan. The red really pops against the yellow and adding one heart in a different colour is inspired. It's a beauty of a card.

  4. I know what you mean about white/beige (or in my case white/cream)! This one is going to an interesting challenge for me! Your card is lovely. The dies really pop and having one in glitter is a fantastic finishing touch, as is the stitched border. Love it!

  12. I would never have thought to choose that colour combo but it totally works and the yellow adds a real cheeriness to your lovely card. The glimmer heart is a cute touch too!
