Hi beautiful bloggers - what a great day for crafting - the sky is thick with mist, it's wet and cold, and hubby is glued to the motor-racing on TV!
************
My card today is for the challenge at LESS IS MORE, and the theme is a one- layer card, with LEAVES.
I hope I have left enough "white space" - got a bit carried away with my brayer!!
Recipe (using a resist technique):-
Christmas Flourish stamp from Chocolate Baroque - stamped with Versamark, heat-embossed with white EP.
Brayered over the image with Distress Inks - Peeled Paint, Crushed Olive and Old Paper, then spritzed with a mixture of water and bleach in a Mini Mister to give a soft snowy look.
A little SU Dazzling Diamonds glitter added to Holly leaves.
Sentiment by Layers of Color Art Stamps.
I would also like to enter my card into the following Challenges:-
