Afternoon folks.
An extra post this week as I'm still in my craftroom, no trips to do son's washing.
This week's challenge at Less is More is to adapt a fingerprint and create a one layer card.
Well first off what a hoot, then second read the instructions before getting carried away!
I finished my first attempt but forgot to make it one layer!! Never mind it was good practice for the real thing!
I saw a card awhile ago with a line of thumb print stamps as the focal and the tagline 'Thumb body loves you', so thought I would use that idea, hence the tag line. perfect for a retirement card. The fingerprints were made into toe-poke sandals on a beach. I debossed the umbrella and inked the sky,sea and beach before adding the sandals.
I shall also just have time to enter the challenge at Time Out - Fun in the sun
Thanks to my teamie Cornelia's nudge I shall also enter at -
