LIM- Week 66 - Yellow

Morning all...

Hope everyone is having a nice week!

Im making the most of my time off trying to tick bits and bobs off my to do list as well as getting on with some more wedding invitations! (I promise to show you them at some point this week!)

Today I wanted to share with you my entry for this weeks Less Is More Challenge.  Being the first week of the month the theme falls to a colour and this month it is YELLOW.  I have to admit I do over look yellow apart from at Easter time so it was a nice challenge for me to take part in.

Over the bank holiday weekend I had my new delivery of Papertrey Ink goodies and there was one thing I couldn't wait to arrive.  I have been envious of the Rosie Posie stamp set since it came out - but I was too scared to order it as I thought it was going to be too hard for me to use.  I'm constantly seeing beautiful images created by some very talented people using this set and last month I decided to just bit the bullet and buy it.  Im so glad I did, as it was perfect for this weeks challenge.



I teamed it with my new Lemon Tart ink and used a number of different yellow promarkers to accent and give definition to the petals.  I stamped it along with fillable frame number 1 and a sentiment from the same set.  I used soft grey ink for the sentiment as I thought black would be too harsh with the pale yellow.  I finished the card off with some paper from my new favourite chevron designs from Liz at Pink Petticoat.  I can't get enough of them.





Thats it from me today folks - thank you for stopping by and taking time to read my ramblings.

I'll see you later in the week!
