Week 106 One Layer

 Bad News/Good News
It seems that whenever there is bad news, there's always some good news too.
We are all so sad that Mandi has decided that she can no longer continue with Less is More, but delighted that her business is doing so well.
Our next piece of good news is that Jen has agreed to stay on as a regular designer and I for one am delighted that she has chosen to do so.
Thanks so much Jen I'm sure everyone will be delighted by your decision.

It's that certain week once more where our challenge is to make a
 One Layer Card
This time we would like you include some reference to
MUSIC
Some people are still a little confused as to just what is allowed in this category, but if you look at our Guidelines at the top of the page it may clarify things a little for you.
Please don't forget that all important 'White Space' !

Chrissie
This image stamp is from Magenta coloured with watercolour pencils and a water brush. The text stamp, a definition of music is from Darkroom Door.
Simples!
This is a mini card... merely 10 cms square which uses a tiny bird stamp from Artemio, coloured with Promarkers and with a few hand drawn notes emerging from him.

Jen


I took co-ordinations card stock to make the card base and embossed using a sizzix embossing folder and then sanded to bring through the pattern.  Finished off with a little ribbon from SU in rich razzleberry.


My second card is a really simple card using a pink petticoat sentiment printed onto card blank and then masked before the LOTV music was stamped over the top. It's tiny at 10cm square.

  19. Szkoda, że Mandi nie będzie projektantem LiM. Jej karty często zachwycały mnie i inspirowały.
    Dziś cieszę się z muzycznego wyzwania. Muzyka to coś, co w moim domu króluje na każdym kroku. Dziękuję za ten temat. Gratuluje koleżankom wspaniałych pomysłów.
    Pozdrawiam wszystkich

  20. I'm sure that Mandi will be missed but it sounds like her shop is doing well - good news in a time when a lot of ventures are struggling to survive. I'm sure Jen is a worthy successor and that Less is More will continue to challenge us for a long time to come. Elizabeth xx
