Less is More Week 2

This weeks Less Is More challenge was a one layer card to include a flower or a tree. This card did not turn out anything like what I had in mind when I started my design (it originally has a small square aperture for the tree image which was printed on the inside). Upon a bit of experimenting I was happy to keep the image plain and simple on the outside of the card. I love this retired Stampin' Up! set so was only too happy to bring it out of retirement for the evening.

This was stamped on a 10cm x 10cm card base of Very Vanilla. The greeting is from the free Sale-A-Bration set 'So Happy For You'. Off to write this and send it to my friend to wish her a very hopeful Spring filled good luck (hence the image of the blossom covered tree).

Happy crafting ;0)

    I have this stamp set too and I love it, but don't use it often enough!
    This is a sweet card. Is this the very bottom of the card, or is there a little space under the sentiment? It's difficult to tell from this picture... I hope there's just a little in order to give the image and sentiment space of their own.
    Thanks so mcuh for joining us and we hope to see you next week!

    Your friend will love it Sarah! I'd forgotten all about this set but it's sweet - I love the little bird house and the heart flowers.
