MY BLOG CANDY UPDATE

I said that if I got an extra 10 followers to my blog that I would add extras to my candy, well as I have passed this amount, I am adding some flowers and ribbon. There are still 2 days left, so if you  haven't already added your name, please do, just click on the picture of my candy in my sidebar, and it will take you to the post and just add your name in mr linky, Thanks Irene xx

ANNIVERSARY CARD

It is our wedding anniversary tomorrow, 41 years, how time flies, and also my birthday, here is the card I have made for my hubby, following the criteria for LESS IS MORE CHALLENGE wk 10, a 1 layer card with sentiment as the focus.

I had to be very quick adding this card to my blog, otherwise I would have been very tempted to  keep adding to it, still don't find less is more, easy. The sentiment is computer generated, as I don't have a fancy anniversary stamp. Anyway of to sit in the garden for a bit, hope  the weather stays good for tomorrow, off for a trip to the lake district, and maybe i'll find a craft shop!!

Thanks for taking the time to visit my blog, love reading your comments, Irene

A TOUCH OF RED

Here is a quick card for the less is more challenge a touch of red

I am sending this card to a friend who has just lost her brother, the image is a digi fromdigistamp boutique printed straight onto the card and sentiment added in my craft studio, all 4 sides of the card have been scored, although it doesn't show up very well in the picture, and red pearls have been added to the center of the flowers, a really simple card, but very effective.

Thanks for stopping by my blog, all comments are appreciated, Irene
