Less is More #435 - Recipe

Happy Saturday! It's time for a new challenge over at Less is More -


I have created two cards to share with you -

Card #1
I used a new stamp and die set by Lawn Fawn called 'Peas on Earth'. I stamped then coloured my images using polychromos. After die-cutting everything, I assembled the card. The sentiment is from the Lawn Fawn set called 'Home for the Holidays'.


Card #2
Another new set for me by Lawn Fawn called "Hay There". The animals in this set are so adorable. I've stamped and coloured the images once again, then die cut them to assemble the card.


We have a wonderful Guest Designer joining us for this challenge - make sure you check out Caroline Paton who was our November winner!

I hope to see you over at the challenge blog!

I would like to enter my cards over at the following challenges -
Card #1 - Krafty Chicks (CAS), Colour with Pencils (CAS), Pearly Sparkles Challenge (Something beginning with P - Peas), Addicted to Stamps and More (Christmas), Double Trouble (Musical Theme), Unicorn Challenge (CAS)

Penny Black Midway Reminder

 Hello! We are already half way through our challenge over at the Penny Black Saturday blog.

Anything Goes with option: Something New

I ordered a couple more sets with gift cards I received for Christmas. The one I used on this card is called 'Jolly Good Times'. I was inspired by this card HERE.


I stamped my images and coloured them with polychromo pencils. I fussy cut them out (which really leaves a lot to be desired...) and popped them up with foam tape. The sentiment is from the 'to all'... set which I heat embossed and just used the Merry Christmas part.

The prize for this challenge is provided by our generous sponsor:

Prize - $20 voucher!

Less is More #434 - Clothing/Fashion

 It's our first challenge for 2021 over at Less is More!

We have a great theme for you -


I didn't really have many stamps to play with for this one. I tried to think outside the box and created Mama Bear creating a new piece of clothing for Baby Bear. Hopefully it will be fashionable too!


I've bought a whole heap of new stamps and dies using Christmas gift vouchers (mostly Lawn Fawn). This adorable scene was created using two of those sets. The bears and knitting accessories are from 'Den Sweet Den' and the 'rug' is actually a beach towel from the 'On the Beach' set.
I coloured all my images using polychromo pencils.

I hope to see you over at the challenge blog! Thanks for popping in today :) 

I would like to enter my card over at the following challenges -
Lawn Fawn (Outstanding Occasions - this could be used for lot's of occasions), Cut it Up (Winter), Dies R Us (Anything Goes), Lost Coast Designs (Something beginning with B - Bears), Ellibelle's Crafty Wednesday (Something New), Simon Says Stamp (Something New)

Penny Black Saturday Challenge

 Hello and Happy New Year!

It's the first Saturday of the month which means a new challenge over at the PBSC.

Anything Goes + optional: Something New

I have used a new to me Penny Black stamp called Toadily Happy.

I embossed the toads, coloured them with polychromo pencils then created a mask for them. I used distress ink to create the background then flicked water over the entire panel. I stamped the sentiment after it was completely dry.
