Less is More - Geometric

We recently got back from Hawaii and while we had an amazing time there visiting new places and enjoying the weather, my husband picked up a bit of a flu on the way home...so a bit of recovery time for him this week.

We have another challenge starting over at Less is More.  The challenge for this week is Geometric. If you are a regular follower you'll notice we have been in a bit of a roll on shapes...well let's keep it going.  Looking forward to seeing what you come up with.  Here is my take on the challenge...

This is a quick and easy one layer card.  I simply stamped the red tree and masked it.  I then stamped the other two trees and added the sentiment.  I thought it needed something a little extra so I added the grey stars....now looking at it I'm thinking I should have added some silver stars instead...oh well. I can do that next time.  This will be a very easy card to mass produce for the holidays!




Here's a close up of the card. Looking forward to seeing what you come up with for this challenge!

  6. Very stylish and a super idea for a Christmas card that's also suitable for mass production! I love the colour palette too - somewhat Scandinavian in feel and really warm yet classy. Sorry to hear your husband's picked up the flu and hoping he feels better soon. Hawaii sounds awesome though - glad you enjoyed it! Have a fab weekend x
