Challenge #479 - One Layer

Hey LIMettes!

We're back! Thanks for your patience while our designers had their break. Our latest challenge is a One Layer challenge.

To create a one layer card, you may only use the CARD BASE to stamp on and no other layers. Die cuts, embellishments, etc are not allowed.

**********************************************************

We have amazing new designers joining our team! Please make them feel welcome -

Less is More is a Clean and Simple challenge, but what does clean and simple (CAS) mean and what are we looking for in your cards?
One main focal point
Lots of clean / open / non-patterned / non-textured space (often called 'white space' although not necessarily white) Space with NO PATTERN and NO TEXTURE on it
Minimal or NO layers
Minimal embellishments
Quick and easy to recreate
Cards that comply with our Glossary of Terms

**********************************************************

Now let's see what fantastic inspiration the design team have created for you and please do check out their personal blogs if you have the time as there could be a couple of bonus cards there!
