New Challenge at Less Is More!




Hi friends!
It's time for the last challenge of April at Less Is More. The month of April is sponsored by Visible Image stamps and our DT has very much enjoyed playing with their products! The flower stamp set I used in this card can be bought HERE. Please have a look at our challenge blog for lots of more DT inspiration! 



I wish my photo was better in showing the shine this card has but no... It was really hard to capture in the lighting conditions I was working with! I've made the Copic colored flowers shiny with Wink of Stella and also the gold water color I've splattered has a beautiful shine on it. I splattered white paint as well. I've also created a "halo" around the flowers with yellow ink to make them look like they are glowing in light... And the rest of the kraft card I've evenly coated with white pigment ink to make the yellow halo pop even more. The photo is really bad and makes this card "look like nothing" but it is really nice in real life and I actually have it in my fridge door now because I like the message of the sentiment so much! :)

I hope I've inspired you to "Shine a Light" and I hope to see you playing along! Happy crafting!

Oh my goodness, Nonni ... how could this stunning card 'look like nothing' ... everything about it is gorgeous ... those beautifully coloured stylised blooms, the soft glow around them, the tiny splatters ... yep, it's a stunner! If it's this lovely on screen, it must be spectacular IRL! Hugs, Anita :)

Another stunner Nonni! Superb use of those stamps and the splatter is perfect. It is lovely to see those images against a coloured background. I bet the shine is gorgeous in real life. Have a fantastic weekend xx

Oh Nonni, you have done this gorgeous image such justice. What a gorgeous creation. I can imagine how sparkly it is, but it looks fantastic even without seeing the full effect. You are really making me want that stamp set!
