The first week of a new month over at Less is More and our talented leaders Mandi and Chrissie have set the theme of 'Shades of Blue for this weeks theme.
For my first card I used a patterned piece of cardstock, with a pale blue flowers and leaves, The stamp is by Hero Arts, with a navy torn paper strip and ribbon to finish.
I haven't added a sentiment to the cards this time. I have in mind to make boxes of assorted notelets, to give as gifts at Christmas.
On to my second card -
A plain white background this time, I used the same stamp. Strips of pale blue paterned paper, navy card and the ribbon. It was distress ink I used to colour the flower, this helped to get a few shades of blue.
Thankyou for stopping by to take a look, I realy appreciate your comments.
Lovely cards! I like the first one best, I have 2 finished too, will blog them tomorrow! Have a nice evening, I'm off to bed. Hugs, Valerie
