Card No 2 for Less is More Challange - Week 13



The gravel is now all spread and looking lovely, we've just had a very sharp rain shower so I came in to create. I cann't take all the credit for this as the image was designed by "create with TLC" at createwithtlc.blogspot.com. The other inspiration came from my sister in UK at craftingdi.blogspot.com She printed a card and then embossed it as soon as it came from the printer. I remember I had done this years ago but forgot about it (as you do) and when she mentioned it the other day I thought to give it a go. I used white pearl card and lightly painted in the flower and leaves with my watercolour brushes. So a big "Thank you" to Di and TLC.
