Second post this week and it's only Tuesday!

Well, my Less is More mojo is on overdrive and I haven't made a mess of anything yet, so I made a few more bling cards. These were all very very quick too, which doesn't always go hand in hand with LIM!
My first uses a previously uninked stamp that I got last year. It is a Hero Arts cling stamp called Wreath of leaves. I just added a few gems and a little Hero Arts sentiment.

After that I remembered some other stamps I bought last year, and didn't really get round to using. These are called Joyful Bubbles by Paula Pascual and were an absolute snip at £4.99. I stamped both cards with versafine (Royal purple and majestic blue) then embossed with Kaleidoscope embossing powder, adding a couple of gems too. The first is the blue one...

 

...with a close up of the sparkle...

The second is the purple one...

...and another close up...

I am thinking this kaleidoscope embossing powder is seriously addictive!

Blingin' 'eck! I can't get a decent photo!

The Allsorts challenge (by Jules) for this week is to bring out our bling, so I sat down and had a go at a monochrome card using my Stampendous Agapanthus stamps. I also used a text stamp from Crafty Individuals. The little swirl around the edges is from the Paper Artsy Sqiggly Ink collection. I mounted both panels on some silver holographic mirri board. I added a punched border (Martha Stewart) and ten stick on gems. I also added 3 large black flat-backed pearls. The greeting is from craftwork cards and also has a pearlised finish.Unfortunately I have not managed to get a decent photo, so it looks very lacking in bling! Maybe I should have added some glitter too! Thanks for looking x
