Oops--Lawnscaping Challenge #16 & Less is More Wk 28
Tonight I combined Lawnscaping and Less is More Challenges. Both required only one layer--yep, only one layer of paper. Mandi from Less is More inspired me to pull out some LuminArt Primary Elements and try something new. Seriously when I purchased the LuminArt materials, I had absolutely no idea how to use them, but they were 75% off, so I had to buy them. Tonight I combined them with some water and painted inside my science bottles (Love Potion #9 --Itty Bitty by Unity). My thought process was for the card to look like there was an explosion. Using the OOPS sentiment, I could use this card for a forgotten birthday or an I'm sorry card when I do something wrong. I tried to balance the card with the ribbon and a jeweled brad. I'm still not sure about this card, but I did move outside my comfort zone and enjoyed myself!
P.S. I think I put too much "explosion." Might need to retry leaving more white space. Hmm?

Hi there, Great card, pretty colour combination, Gay xxx
ReplyDeleteThis is such a fun card it brightened up my day just looking at it ! x
ReplyDeleteI think that if your 'explosion' was confined to an area closer to the bottles, the splodges of colour may have had more of an impact!
ReplyDeleteIt's a great idea... I'm glad you had fun!
Thanks so much
