Another no layers card at AAA Cards in their latest challenge. There’s also the option of a ‘plant/grow/farm’ theme. Perhaps unsurprisingly, I don’t have any stamps featuring tractors or farmyard animals/birds, so went instead for another interpretation of ‘plant’ and featured a flower on my one layer card:
It’s recipe time at Less is More, and your ingredient is ‘a tag’. Just make a clean and simple card featuring a tag, upload it to your blog and share the link over at the challenge blog. I’ve made this card for inspiration as part of the design team:
It’s time for a new challenge at AAA Cards… This time we’re to use a birthday moodboard as our theme (pic below), with the optional choice of ‘birthday’. The challenge has been running for 8 years and continues to go from strength to strength. I’ve used the balloon theme with colours from the bottom right to make my birthday card.
Less is More challenge blog has just published their next clean and simple card challenge – a one layer card with the stipulation of being ‘off-centre’. The one layer bit is the challenge, as it negates the use of die cuts, embellishments and rather obviously, layers. I’ve used masking to ‘layer’ my one layer card…
Another clean and simple card challenge has been posted over at AAA Cards. This time the theme is ‘Easter/Spring’ and the challenge is to use small and few elements. It’s been a while since I have made any papercraft flowers, so that’s what I went with for my design team card…
Another clean and simple card challenge at Less is More this week. We’ve been set the theme of ‘occupations’. I trawled through my stash and decided to go with the occupation of ‘gardener’… It wasn’t that tricky to choose as I only had one set of stamps that were suitable! Here’s my card:
One theme that recurs regularly in clean and simple card making challenges is ‘along the edge’. You have four to choose from, but the elements on the card need to predominantly be arranged on the edge of the card blank. This leaves lots of white space on the card which can be daunting for some. This week’s theme over at AAA Cards also throws in the wild card of ‘your country’. With the design team being from all over the world, we’re sure to have some fabulous cards for your inspiration. Here’s mine:
A fortnight has passed and it’s time for another clean and simple card challenge over at Less is More. This time, it’s a colour theme and they’ve chosen a classic combo of pink and gold. It’s not a one layer card this time, so I’ve taken advantage of that by adding my elements on foam pads to give a little height and extra interest:
Though the theme is ‘anything goes’ it’s important to remember that over at AAA Cards the challenge is to keep it clean and simple. I’ve incorporated the optional theme of ‘spring animals’ into my CAS card. It’s one of the more easy challenges to take part in – why not have a go?
I don’t think I could have come up with a much simpler card than this for the latest challenge at Less is More. It’s a recipe and the ingredients are ‘a bit of bling’.
