Less is More week 76 - one layer


Wow huge freedom this week with the LIM challenge although it's a bit like a large menu when you have too much choice:) 

Everyone's favourite... the 
One Layer Challenge 
and this week it's really simple


Three of anything that is, three colours, three images, three stamps, three words, the number three.... it's up to you, but don't forget the white space, a simple design and just one layer!





I've gone for a butterfly theme using a set of stamps from Little Claire Designs. I used the tree and the cat and added a sentiment to the butterfly trail, so that's my three stamps.
I coloured the images with PM's and rounded the opposite corners.
I'm also entering this in the CASology challenge where the cue card is HAPPY. Happy is in my sentiment, a butterfly tree makes me happy and the cat is smiling!! Probably ate the only bird in the tree:)
Thanks for visiting me and be sure to leave a comment so I can repay the favour;)

    So nice to see a DL card, not made one for ages, this combination of stamps works really well with the tall shape. Super colouring.

    Lucky cat getting that bird!! This is a great one-layer card - the colours just pop out and the rounded corner finishes it off beautifully.
