So I am glad that I finished my Less is More challenge card last night. Because it is the beginning of the month it is a colour challenge:
Brown & Pink
I used a tag that came with an item of clothing as a template. I knew that it would come in handy some time !!! The heart is covered with spotty paper from a My Mind's Eye stack that came free with a magazine. I coloured the edges with Spun Sugar and Brushed Corduroy Distress Inks. To follow on with the "free" theme, I cut up one of those coffee cup sleeves. (I knew that that would come in handy too!) It was also edged with Brushed Corduroy.
I decided on a birthday sentiment but I think that this design would lend itself to other occasions too.
So I will have to embarrass my friends again by collecting more of those coffee sleeves when the occasion arises. I did see a Youtube video that used them to make a tag book so that could be another project to tackle.

What a lovely change in the weather it was today Lilian - I'd go as far to say it was hot! Love your card, great textures and depth of colour. xx
What a great idea to reuse everyday things ,you would never know, and it made such a fab card! The shop is simply create out at Alford nearly everything is half price so heaps of bargains to be had!!!! x
I love this one, that primitive heart is super.
Thanks so much
