For Less is More - neutrals


Hello sweet bloggers,

I hope you had a relaxed and happy weekend...

I am kind of taking a break from intensive card making to give my hands that much needed rest... so my mojo has ditched me!

Anyway, here are two variations I made for Less is More, this week, the theme being neutrals.





Supplies:

Base card stock - white
Stamps - Unity (Itty Bitty) stamped with Stazon black
Sentiment - part of stamp
Sponging - black soot

The first picture was taken at night time and the second one is a day time shot - some difference there.


I will also submit this card for Make it Monday - anything goes

Will come and visit you soon.

Monica

I really like these! The tearing and edged with color create an awesome texture. :) Love the butterfly stamp too. I might even have that one too.

Fantastic neutral CAS cards!

Two lovely card, but I think the second one has the edge, it looks more sophisticated with the tearing and sets off the image. Take care.
