And welcome to Saturday morning and another fresh challenge over at Less is More. As we're now into September our first challenge of the month, as always, is a Colour challenge. Here are the details...
Our fabulous sponsor for September is Happy Little Stampers so please do play along throughout the month for a chance to win a prize!
The lovely Kylie from HLS is also joining us today as our guestie so please do pay her a visit and make her feel welcome :)
Just the one card from me this week, and I've used all Happy Little Stampers stamps on this one...
On some white cardstock, I prepped with an anti-static powder tool and then I stamped the images, a few at a time and embossed them in white. I then blended the two colours of Distress Ink on the diagonal to reveal all the white party images. I die cut a section using a pierced square die before popping the square up on some 3D foam onto my card base, for which I chose some white linen cardstock for a change. The sentiment was embossed in white on a black cardstock strip.
Materials used:
- Stamps: Happy Little Stampers - Birthday Friends, Bold Birthday Sentiments, Mix Mash
- Ink: VersaMark; Distress Ink - Twisted Citron, Blueprint Sketch
- Embossing Powder: Altenew - Pure White
- Die: MFT Die-namics - Pierced Square Stax
