Less is More.....


Our challenge this week over at LIM is stars......I've used one of my X-cut star dies...I coloured some card blue using duster brushes and then stamped my image which is a stamp that I have had for years its an unmounted one so I don't know where it came from. Using my Crafts Too embossing folder for the background.  The sentiment is a Hero Arts stamp called 'Twinkle Border'.
