It's good to be home, despite the 4 inches of snow we got as a welcome home gift from Mother Nature. This week's challenge at Less is More is an interesting one. One of their designers questioned whether or not my dotted backgrounds for the last week's challenge constituted "white space," and she was probably correct. This week the challenge asks for colored "white space," and I have a birthday card that fits the bill.
The cardstock is from Simon Says and the patterned paper from an old MME's paper pack, "Go Fly a Kite." I used Papertrey Ink's "Sentiment Splits" die to create the curved bottom of the top layer, and the candle and sentiment both come from Papertrey's "Wishes Come True." I added a bit of Glossy Accents to enhance the flame of the candle.
I spent most of the first day home unpacking and organizing, and sadly, I think there's still at least one more day for the organizing piece. I took some projects to Chicago to work on, and got a good start, but have more to do. Hope your week is a productive and happy one!
