Playing with Dies for Challenges!


Hi friends!
I had house guests all weekend but managed to squeeze in a little bit of crafting before bedtime yesterday! Bedtime was sort of late because of the card making though... Was super sleepy at work today! :)



Anyway, I was inspired by this week's Less Is More: Alphabeth. After seeing the challenge topic I immediately thought of these designer papers I had... And the Happy Little Stampers sentiment I decided to use fits the challenge pretty well too I think! I played with my Pretty Pink Posh die that I hadn't used before -when I bought this die I though it would be great for using designer paper in a CAS way. The flower die is by Penny Black. I winked it but this is photographed in grey Finnish winter day light so you can't see the shine. :)

I'm also entering:

(flowers + baby blue and baby pink)
I've saved this cute inspiration photo on my computer and finally I was playing with colors that worked! My first time entering here!




Try something New (new die + designer paper in a CAS way) 





Thanks for popping by!

    I love the panelled design on your card, Nonni! Those soft colours make a great contrast with the black. Thank you for playing along with us at Less is More this week :)

    This is a super design, so striking with the panels and that pretty background paper set against the dramatic black of the background. Love it! Thanks so much for playing along with us at Less is More :)
