Less is More - Week 11 - Acetate

Afternoon all

Wow what wonderful weather we are having!  I've not been around much as have just come back from a few days away in Norfolk - visiting my Dad and his partner Rita (hi Rita - if you are reading this!)  Had a lovely time walking Tilly on the beach, eating ice creams and sitting by the broads - wonderful!

So sorry if I've not been visiting you all as much as usual!  Anyway on to today and I've dragged myself in from weeding the garden to make a card for the Less is More challenge this week which ends in a couple of hours so just making it this week ladies!!!

The challenge is to use acetate - some people steer clear (excuse the pun!) of acetate but I don't mind it actually!  Right so here are some photos of my card:-




Sorry the photos are not great even with my photo thingy - in fact I think its taken me longer to fiddle about photographing than it did to make the card!!!  The card is a lovely pearlised lilac colour but it just doesn't come out that well in the photo.  The acetate butterfly (which I've stamped with swirls) and the sentiment are from Craftwork Cards, pearls are from Hobbyhouse.

Right off to make another card for some DT work and to visit some of your lovely blogs.

Enjoy the sunshine - don't forget the sunscreen and will be back soon.

Happy crafting

    Glad you made it - it's such a pretty card. Are those swirls by Inkadinkado?

    Happy Easter

    I love the sheer simplicity of this card Tina. It does not need anything else on there as it has it's own sophisticated clean look. Just lovely.
