I suppose I should really save this post until tomorrow, so that I have something ready for Mags' Post-Every-Day-In-November challenge...but having made the cards for the Less is More challenge I want to show them off! (Not that I like them that much!)
It was a tricky challenge this week - "Dark background with a Splash of Colour". There was this inspiration photo too:
but I was devoid of inspiration. Still I sorted through my bits and bobs, and found the shiny copper leaves my SiL sent as part of my wonderful birthday crafty stash...I knew I had a bit of copper water colour paint left, so I created this:
It's a bit smudgy, as I forgot to let the paint dry (d'oh!) before turning it over. That necessitated the addition of the sentiment
(Roughly translated as "Happiness always") which I found already written in my box of stuff. You can hardly see the mess, she says hopefully!
It's alright...but not great. So I tried No 2.
