Less is More

My first card is for the challenge "Less is More"  Week 52 with a sketch.


I made two similar cards using this sketch, using slightly different colours.


Simple and green

The stamp is from Inkadinkado Clear Stamps Garden Delight 97623 and sentiment from Garden Flower 97616. I resist embossed the image with white embossing power and tea leaves ink. I mounted it on brown card for the edging, and stamped the sentiment in tea leaves ink too.


My second card. 
Simple and brown

The second card uses these same stamp (Inkadinkado Clear Stamps Garden Delight 97623 and sentiment from Garden Flower 97616). Again I resist embossed the image with white embossing power, but this time used chocolate impress ink. I also mounted it on brown card for the edging, and stamped the sentiment in chocolate.

I think I like the brown one better, so this is the one I have entered in the Less is More sketch challenge.  Which is your favourite?

Thanks for dropping by and for your comments.
