Less is More Week 24 - Theme - Circles

Good morning all you LIMettes out there - I'm so early for this challenge this week I can't quite believe it myself.  But you know when everything just "comes together" - such a lovely feeling.  So the theme this week over at Less is More is circles and not just one circle to qualify its got to be part of the design of the card (you don't want Chrissie or Mandi telling you off (in the nicest possible way you understand....) if you don't comply!!!)

So here is my contribution for this week:-

I started off with the Cuttlebug circles embossing folder - I then decided to cut round the circles on one edge to try and emphasise them a bit more....
 The sentiment circle stamp is from My Sentiments Exactly which I stamped and then die cut into a scallop circle.  I then put a brad (eagle eyed among you will spot its a sparkly one - he he) in the middle as I wanted the sentiment to be able to be moved in a circle too....
 .... just to prove this point the above circle starts with Friendship and then a turned it round and took another photo (below) for a different part of the sentiment - just to prove my point!!!!
So do I get extra points for not only having circles in the design but also that an element of my design you can turn in a circle!!!! LOL (I'm kidding honestly!)

Oh and I restrained myself from adding any more colour, sparkles etc to this card to keep it in the CAS style.

Well enjoy the rest of your weekend LIMettes and catch up with you all soon.

Happy Crafting
