Less is More plus a few

This weeks challenge at Less is More was an inspiration piece using the LIM logo header.  Not much to say about this one except that I think it turned out rather nice.  It's one of those cards that can work in different colors and still be pretty.  Plus its generic enough that a number of sentiments would work.  

 

Yesterday was the 4th of July holiday so I took the time to finish a few of the other LIM challenges that have been piling up on my craft table.  There are a few more left in the box that maybe I'll get to this weekend.  Maybe .... LOL

This first one didn't require any additional work yesterday, I didn't post it the week of the challenge because I wrecked it at the last minute.  I wanted to make the "Celebrate" stand out so I tried to outline it with a Going Gray marker.  I should have left it alone.  The challenge that week was to use Red, White and Blue.   

This next card was for the baby card challenge.  I didn't finish this one by the deadline.  :(

This last one was the Something Shinny challenge.  I think I actually submitted a card that week and this was a second one I was working on.  The JOY is cut out of the card stock and the shinny metal is behind it.  It's a very pretty card IRL but kind of hard to capture in a picture.

Thank you for stopping by - if anyone has a good joke please share.  I could use a good laugh about now.  I lost my diamond ring and it's depressing the hell out of me.  It was made from the diamonds that were in my old wedding set and I'm just sick over the loss.  :(
