Just a brief reminder... we like to see white space, few layers and minimal embellishments!

Can I first of all thank everyone for the welcoming and encouraging comments left on my own blog and Less is More following my DT announcement last week. You are an amazing set of blog buddies and it's much appreciated. I've had a fabulous week visiting all your blogs which are packed full of incredible inspiration.

This week the theme is flowers and my first card uses a brand new MFT Die-Namics set of dies called 'lily' which I've die-cut then coloured with Promarkers, along with a chevron stencil that I've used with distress inks. Both of these have been on my wish list since their release so I had a little spend at the weekend. 

The background panel has been die-cut using another MFT product (Pierced Rectangle Stax) and adhered to the card with 3D foam. To finish I've added a 'Happy' die-cut sentiment, also coloured with Promarkers and a birthday greeting; both from Clearly Besotted. Finally a little bow of hemp cord to tie the stems together.

I've used some of this months sponsors new releases for my card this week.  could not resist.  The set is love blossoms and i combined the fabulous dies with the stamps for this card.  i shaped the flowers to give the card some height.
