Friends Forever

Well what a challenge the girls from Less is More set this week!

 

I took inspiration from Chrissies card but didn't think I'd ever be able to do this. I did cheat a little and used one of my sizzix word dies 'friends' as I didn't trust myself to use single letters & match them up lol!!

I thought this image lended itself perfectly to the sentiment. I printed the image twice adding the word forever next to one of the images. Then using my die cut out friends from the other image. The fiddlest part was cutting my 3D foam small enough to mount the sentiment!

I love this new technique and am going to practice it, never know I may be brave enough to try single letters! The finished card looks much better in real life, the photo doesn't do justice to the raised sentiment.

Thanks girls for a great challenge!

 



Less is More challenge

 

Had to get my thinking cap on for this one! One layer card (no problem, I like one layer cards) BUT also a film!! Not a clue, so got all of my stamps out to get inspiration when I came across this one, not used it for ages & it hit me straight away. That's the good thing about challenges right?
