Less is More #302

Morning LIMettes it's time for another challenge over at Less is More
and it's the dreaded one layer one! I'm sure you'll be up for the challenge
though as you always manage to WOW us with your designs.

Our theme for this one is Books / Literature 
so you can choose a title of book as inspiration or pictures of books; 
basically play however the theme takes you - I can't wait to see what you do!


This card didn't end up anything like I intended as I was going to use a 
naughty inlaid rainbow die ... I felt sure there must be a book about rainbows
so having done a little research I found 'The Rainbow' by DH Lawrence.
Once I'd got that in my head and the fact that I love rainbow colours I couldn't 
let it go! After numerous non-starters this is what I ended up with!

Recipe:
My Favourite Things: Concentric Circle Grid stencil
Clearly Besotted: Bookworm stamp set
Distress Inks and Doodlebug Sprinkles

It's Clean and Simple over at Addicted to Stamps and More
so I'm heading over there with this one!




Next up I couldn't resist this cute little digi from Digistamp Boutique
which I've had for ages. It's coloured with Promarkers and I've
added a vertical sentiment from the same CBS set used in the first card.

As always there's loads more creative fun by my fellow teamies
over on the Less is More blog HERE 

As always thanks for calling by and I hope you have
a fun and crafty weekend!

  1. These are fab! I love the bright colours and clean lines in both of them. The first card's sentiment is such a testament to the power of reading, and what a fabulous rainbow! I agree 100% with your second card and have stayed up way past my bedtime on many occasions with a book that can't be put down! Cute image and great colouring too! Have a lovely weekend x

  3. Have to say that rainbow colour wheel is absolutely awesome Sarah! Thank goodness you stuck with that rainbow idea. The blending is superb. Hee, Hee! I'm just like Esther, staying up past bedtime to finish a book... in fact I still do frequently. Love that cute image and your colouring is beautiful. Have a great crafty weekend.

  6. Bright and bold CAS cards here, Sarah, which have made me smile this morning! Love the rainbow on your first card and the sentiment on the second....although I more often end up with a book on my face when I try and read in bed these days :)
