My goodness, second post of the day!!
The Less is More challenge this week is colour and Chrissie and Mandi have chosen Green to fit in with the fextive season which is very soon to be upon us. The thought behind my card was to make it look like a present and I'm not sure whether I've succeeded or not - but here it is anyway.
A square of Old Olive card was embossed with the Stripes Embossing folder (although it doesn't show up on the photo) before matting onto a slightly larger piece of Certainly Celery. I then punched out four squares of Whisper White and glued these onto the Old Olive. Incidentally I inked the edges of all the cardstock with Old Olive before assembling. I stamped the small holly leaves with a stamp from Pines & Poinsettias, coloured with markers, before adding the letters which were cut out with the Timeless Type Junior Alphabet dies. The sentiment is from a retired set, stamped in Old Olive, onto a white card blank and the card was finished off with a large Old Olive Satin ribbon bow.
