Less is More - A new challenge on the block

Good morning bloggers

A lovely crafting buddy of mine, Chrissie, and her friend Mandi, have started a new challenge blog - Less is More.  Anybody who follows Chrissie will know that she is the master of less is more, and that she produces fabulously elegant cards.  The theme for the first challenge is Pink, Black and White.

Most people who know me realise that I find this style of card very difficult - all the space makes me nervous.  Anyway I decided to take the plunge.  The pink image is from an Elusive Images plate that I have had for a long time, and very rarely used, and there were several images from that one plate I could have used for this challenge.  The sentiment is from the same plate.  I stamped the image with a ColourBox chalk ink, and the image and the black mount have been cut with a Nestie die.  However, I couldn't resist just a little bit of sparkle, so three pink gems have been added as well.

I am entering this for the following challenges:
Aly's Sunday sketch - Bling
StampArtic - Clean and Simple


I really appreciate it that you take the time to look at my blog and leave such lovely comments. Thank you each and every one of you.
