More - Less is More

This is once again for the Less is More challenge which this week is a one layer card. Yesterday I did a fairly quick card but wasn't happy with it and I have to agree with some of the comments that the wording was too big, in my defence it didn't look that big on the screen and it was well past my bedtime.
Today I have gone down the old fashioned route of inks and stamps rather than digi, I have used duster brushes and Distress Inks for the background and stamped the image which is an Elusive Images stamp in black versafine. I have added a bit of colour with Promarkers.

Oh and by the way the card from yesterday has now been transformed into something smaller without the wording on it, lol.

  9. oh no typed a great long message and lost it. Jenny this card is just a wowza one. It's perfect in every way. Just beautiful.

    I agree with you about things looking okay on the screen on CAP and DSA - I did the same thing printed and then saw the error of my ways.
    Hope you didn't take offence yesterday - none was intended and the card was good but this one is five times better.
