Last Gasp Less Is More

Morning all, it's nearly the weekend, yay!  Pleased to report that the antibiotics have finally kicked in and I am feeling sooooooooooo much better!

Just a little quickie for you today - a last gasp entry for the LESS IS MORE A Touch Of Red challenge.


I'ved used a Magenta flower square and painted with distress inks, I hardly diluted the red at all which gave it such intensity.  A single strip of black peel off, a Hero Arts sentiment and some matting card.

Hugs, Sxx

    In this case, less truly is more. This is gorgeous. You have just reminded me that I have some of these squares. Maybe I should pull them out and have a play. I hope you are doing well. Hugs, Carissa
