Less is More #154 and Welcome to two New Members


I am happy to tell you that my blog has grown again and two new members have found their way over to my blog! I want to send a warm welcome to 
and 

Both are accomplished stampers and their blog are fun to visit - lots of inspiration to be found - hop on over, if you have time. Thanks Ladies for joining my blog. And as always, I picked a welcome picture for you:



This masterpiece can be right now found at the Brooklyn Botanical Garden and is knitted by Tatyana Yanishevsky. I took the picture from the internet (usually I take my own), but the way it was hung there made it impossible to take decent pictures..... It quite amazing and was definitely worth while the trip. I hope you like it. I certainly do. So intricate, this Tigerlily, quite amazing!

But now,back to card making...

I made this for the Less is More challenge - its one layer hearts this week. 





The little hearts are stamps by Judith, the beautiful ampersand is a stencil from TCW and the  sentiment is Hero Arts You and Me. I spritzed it with glimmer mist and added glossy accents to the hearts. It was very quick to make the card, although it took me forever to come up with something I liked....

I am also adding this card to the Oozak challenge - Love
A Blog named Hero - New Year - New Stash - used my brand new stencil


Have a good night and dream about stamps.........

Dynamic Duos combined with CAS Colours and Sketches

I am getting the hang of combining challenges....not sure if that's good or bad... In the past I would just put all my "creative energy" into one challenge and then just link up with others, if the card just happened to fit...but now I do that on purpose. Well, I'll see how it goes....                           Anyhow here is the card that came out of this: I did not want to add a sentiment - I 'll add it later, when I know who will get it.
