Here I am nipping into the Less is More challenge at the last minute again. One day I'll get there early.
The challenge this week is to Include a Stem. Should not be too difficult but it must also be one layer.
I confess this is the second card as I stamped the green at the top on the first one and then realised it would be better the other way around. I used ink on an acrylic block, ink and water spray for this.
I wanted to use this Kanban stamp which is one of the first ones I bought but have rarely used successfully. It is tricky to stamp as it is so intricate and you need to ink carefully and use a flexible acrylic block. Even here, trying very hard, I missed one petal! Grr.
Then I made an error of judgement and carried on when I should have stopped. Always the case with me. Finished up with blobs by the greeting so added some gems, which I had not really intended to do.
I must get me a splatter/splodge stamp. I am not brave enough to splatter ink direct.
Anyway, here it is. I hope you like it.
And who would have known about the missed bit. It looks lovely Alison. Really nice colours too. Barbxx

Lovely soft, feminine colours Alison. Gems and sequins are marvellous to hide little errors, aren't they, I use 'em a lot!
