Here is a little card I made for the Less is more weekly challenge. It is week 6 and the brief this week is to make a one layer card with the main image off the edge of the card and no score lines.
One layer I can do, stamping off the edge of the card no problem........ BUT NO SCORE LINES....... Shock Horror I can't do that....... I love texture on my cards..... What am I going to do?????? LOL
For this card I used a Clarity stamp, "Leafy Swirl" I stamped it with distress ink "Worn Lipstick"
I repeated the stamp in a circle. at first I didn't think it was going to work and nearly threw it in the bin but luckily I told myself to finish it, and I'm glad I did.
I stamped the small black circle in the middle with the rubber on the end of a pencil. I just finished off the card with a plain simple mothers day stamp, stamped in black.
And not one little bit of embossing any where, gosh that is soooooo alien to me.... LOL
Well I hope you like it. Thank you for stopping by to take a look. I'll see you again soon.

Wonderful!! I really like this stamp and the way you've used it - just gorgeous. I love the black dot and clean, simple sentiment.
This is really striking! My eye was drawn straight to it from the entries to the challenge. Such a clever way to use a stamp to make another shape altogether. Great card!
This REALLY works!
You don't need any embossed lines... it look just great as it is. You must be pleased with it yourself.

Love the clever way you have used this Clarity swirl stamp Sue - I thought at first glance that it was a circular image, but after reading your Post I just had to go and check it out on Barbara's website, and was amazed to find that it isn't a circle at all! The little black centre dot really makes the image "pop" - brilliant work!!
Thanks for visting my blog tonight ~ Hugs, Sylvia x
Lovely card! Love wat you did with that stamp. Great idea! Nice choice of color too.
Have a nice day! Aleksandra
