Framed

It's Saturday and time for the Less is More challenge.  This week's challenge is to do a

One Layer Card
IN THE FRAME

We would like to see a frame of some sort or something in a frame... we'd like you to be as inventive as you like.

You could doodle, draw, emboss, ink, paint, colour, print, stamp, emboss resist, mask or any other method you can come up with to get a frame of sorts into your design.

Here's what I did.....


And the One Layer Wednesday challenge this week is to

Make a one-layer card inspired by sun, sand, sea,
summer, the beach, the late, the cottage (or all of those).

I used the colors from the Color Dare challenge: Cajun Craze, Baja Breeze & Not Qutie Navy.

Card Recipe
Stamps:  Sail Away, Live Laugh Love
Ink:  Baja Breeze, SU Markers (Not Quite Navy, Cajun Craze)
Paper:  Naturals White

As hot as it is  here, a day at the lake feeling the breeze on my face would be most welcome!

Thanks for stopping by to visit.  Last time I looked your smiling faces were back on my sidebar.  I like them there!

Enjoy!
