This is my card for today's LSC Triple Challenge. I'll try to get a better picture but I need to do some digging in the garden before the rain arrives - got to get those beans planted out before they are irrevocably intertwined.
We were to use no more than 3 colours plus a neutral - I used coral, green and light brown (reckoned the copper hardware counted!).
We had to have 3 layers only - my base, green mat and image.
We had to have 3 focal points - my image, my sentiment and my teeny little ribbon tab. Anything else overpowered the simple image.
The Penny Black Blush stamp was coloured with markers and stamped onto watercolour paper. The sentiment is also on watercolour paper, attached with WRMK hardware and green eyelets. I really wanted to use this ribbon, and tried all sorts of ways of adding it, but it was definitely a less is more card.
Thanks for the great challenge today, Wendy.

This is simply beautiful! I love the image (I must dig mine out!) and the pretty colours! I think the ribbon tab is perfect and the rounded corners really soften the whole thing up! Very nicely done
