Less is More 1st Anniversary!!


Happy 1st Birthday to Chrissie and Mandi



Congratulations to Chrissie and Mandi for taking us on such an enjoyable journey and encouraging more WHITE space on our cards!!
This is week 53 and we are back to a colour theme, the same as the inaugural week and this time it's
AQUA.
This is what I came up with and it's using my new SU stamps (Spiced Paisley) that were a gift from the stamping extravaganza day on Sunday.


Stamped with Baja Breeze with a little decoupage and a couple of pearls. The organza ribbon I swiped with the same ink but it's not photographed well and looks grubby!!
Hope everyone is managing to stay safe and warm and do pop over to the LIM blog and check out the fab ideas from Chrissie and Mandi and all the entries for the challenge.

    I love your paisley stamping, Val. It looks fabulous decoupaged, and I love the idea of inking your ribbon with matching Baja Breeze. A fabulous LIM card:)
