I missed the challenge last week at Less is More so thought I'd try and get in early(ish) this week. I thought it would be easy - I bought the Stampin Up French Foliage set this week - perfect! Alas, my creative juices were not flowing very freely and I have struggled a bit!
Then stamped the French Foliage with Brilliance Gold Ink & Versamagic Hint of Pesto
I used a gold pen to draw border lines
At this point it was looking very boring and I didn't have a suitable sentiment to use, so I rummaged through my recent purchases, came across a set of uninked Tim Holtz stamps and thought I'd try and be a bit arty farty.
Not overly happy with it but I'm posting it anyway - I know you'll be nice to me!! Lol.
Have a great week everyone.

This is brilliant, love the leaf stamp and the Tim Holtz :)
Had wondered if you would use your new purchases! good job not boring at all ,lovely subtle autumn colours x
I think it's brilliant. Great to try something new - & for it to work! Jx
Not at all boring Suze. Love the leaf design panel and your Tim Holtz image on top is fab. x
I think it's great! What a shame the gold doesn't show up because I bet it's fab with the Pesto ink and the design is a great idea. Don't be so hard on yourself x
The leaves look great Suze and I just love Tim Holtz stamps. Dianne

It looks great! Love the umbrella man
Cool card! love it when someone brings a touch of inky fingered to CAS LOL XOXO Zoe
Hi Suze I'm not going to be nice to you ;)
your card is great, it would be fine without umbrella man but with him you have the quirkiness and some contrast to give it a bit of ooh.
No need to be kind lol!

Arty farty works! Mind you either the panel OR the TH umbrella man would look great as stand alone cards too
