Less is More.


Less is more and the challenge for week 25   is a Recipe,-   Button or Ribbon.
 Pop over here and see Chrissie and Mandi's Fab examples.
Once again I have had a couple of tries at this one, two more notelets for my boxes.
For the first one I used a Darkroomdoor stamp, a Martha Stewart edge, the shading was done with walnut stain and tea dye distress inks.
This one I used a Tatty Button stamp for the image and a Button mask, both by Creative Expressions.
Tatty has a small button broach added to her dress. The shading is tea dye distress ink and Tatty is coloured with cosmic shimmer watercolour paint.
Thankyou for stopping by to take a look, I realy appreciate you calling.
