Less is More

A new challenge blog to visit called Less is More set up by Mandi and Chrissie, where they are encouraging us to do things a bit more simply. I for one need to persue this, as I tend to want to keep adding more.
Thankyou for the tip about using lego blocks. So if you are curious about this tip. pop over ane take a look.
The theme for the first week is to keep to a colour palate of pink, white and black.
So my card base was easy, white. The stamping black,  using creative expressions wildflower stamp plate. Pink ribbon, sorry couldn't resist this addition, the pink square is spun sugar distress ink.
Thankyou for stopping by to take a look

    Less is more, isn't it interesting doing less, sometimes jumping out of our comfort zones is good. Love your interpretation. hugs Caz

    Great image against the block of colour
    As you continue to do CAS cards , your eye will gradually train to see "Less is More" and you may will be able to stop adding more [your phrase lol]
    Your card is stunning and perfect for our challenge!Thanks for joining our first challenge on "Less is More" hope you will take part again next week

    Ahhh, a card that perfectly emulates a deep breath on a Spring morning!

    I love the sentiment stamp, too: The font style is amazing!
