Less is More Challenge #412

Good morning

It's a brand new month and time for a brand new challenge at Less is More.  And can you believe that Less is More is 9 Years Old?!  And I feel so honoured to have been part of the Design Team for almost five years...where on earth has that time gone?



And our new sponsor for February, the fabulous Uniko, is also celebrating a birthday this month...8 years!  Huge congrats, Bev!  As well as a chance for the monthly prize by entering this challenge, Bev also has a discount code to celebrate, so check out the main LIM challenge post or visit Uniko for all the details.


This challenge is all about how small you can go with your images and sentiments and how few you can use.  So I'm expecting to see lots of super CAS designs in the gallery this time with all that lovely white space we love.

Here's my sample card, and I've used some lovely Uniko stamps here...


As Valentine's Day is coming up I thought I'd go for a love themed card.  This was so quick to make and I love it.  I revisited a previous design of layered up pierced square die cuts, and simply stamped the images on the upper panel before popping it up on 3D foam. 


Materials used:

  • Dies: MFT Die-namics - Pierced Square Stax
  • Stamps: Uniko - Background Builders: Vines, Just Because
  • Ink: Versafine - Onyx Black; Versa Color - Laurel Leaf, Rose Red, Grape

Challenge entries:

Time Out - Challenge #154 - Affectionate
Addicted to Stamps and More - Challenge #374 - CAS





I hope you can join us for this challenge.  If you need more inspiration there's plenty from my fellow teamies with links over on the main LIM challenge blog.
