Less is More #459 - One Layer Card

I hadn't used this stamp set before so I decided to get it out as it would be perfect for a one layer CAS card. It's by Woodware and called Mini Gnome.

Smile for your Birthday

 Hello!

I spent some time just stamping in between housework etc. I would stamp some images, come back and colour them, then when ready I started die cutting and assembling my card.

I started by creating the background using a wave stencil by Lawn Fawn. I have some new distress oxide inks and probably didn't choose the best colours but I think it worked out ok.

The stamps are from Ocean Shell-fie and Hay There by Lawn Fawn.
