Hello friends! Here's my weekly offering for Less Is More: One Layer Week: Curve
I'd also like to enter the Merry Monday Christmas Card Challenge: Create a Scene
My scene only involves a snow bank an a night sky so I do admit it's on the boring side when it comes to scenes... Just remove my card from the gallery if this is way too simple! I hope to come up with a better scene before the challenge closes. :)
Anyway, I made a very quick CAS card:
-masked the snowbank using a SSS snowbank die
-sponged three shades of blue and green inks for Lapland inspired night sky
-added some extra texture to the sky part with Marianne Design bg stamp using white pigment ink, barely visible in the photo but nice, subtle look IRL
-die cut the stitched curve with the matching SSS die
-gold heat embossed the Finnish Christmas sentiment
No embellies, no nothing. :)
Thanks for popping by!
Just love the texture of your inked sky, Nonni - so gorgeous! Perfect with the sentiment flowing from the sky onto the hillside!!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful, simply beautiful.

Looks beautiful Nonni love the embossed sentiment on the blended background. Perfect
ReplyDeleteThis is so gorgeous <3 Perfectly CAS and really elegant with the lovely gold script against the sky and snow bank. Really effective and a great example of how clean space can make a card eye catching. Thanks so much for playing along with us at Less is More :)

Simply CAS brilliant Nonni. Love your inky blending along that perfect curve. Superb colour choice and your gold embossed sentiment certainly packs a punch. Thanks for playing along at Less is More this week.
ReplyDeleteLovely winter scene, Nonni! Thanks so much for playing with us at Merry Monday Christmas Card challenge this week!
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely brilliant--CAS at it's best, Nonni!
ReplyDeleteThis is wonderful Nonni ! A perfect representation of what CAS means ! I love your colour blending and I'm sure that the addition of white pigment ink is great IRL (I can imagine it on the right and left borders). I don't understand Finnish but the big and swirly sentiment is just gorgeous embossed in gold ! Really gorgeous card !
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing and for inspiring.
So simple, So elegant, So great for this week's LIM challenge
