How charming - Less is more week 64

Hi there!

This week's challenge at less is more is to use a charm on a CAS card.

This is my take on the challenge...



The sentiment says: "A very special wish".


I used a Fiskars embossing plate... one I had long before I had my Big shot. It came with a little tool like this



Do you remember... it took a whole day to emboss a single piece of paper!

Thanks for a big shot !.. I was so glad to learn how to use the texture plates in my big shot. Here's a link to explain how!

More free birthday sentiments

Hi there!

I played around in color with some of the following sentiments... please let me know what you think... (be kind :-)










Thanks for visiting me today!

He loves me...he loves me (not)...

Hi there!

*If you arrived here from Free digital stamps... please click on the label "free sentiments" in the sidebar... thanks!*

The first time when I tested this new daisy die, and the little petals fell out of the frame, I immediately thought of the little game we used to play when we were younger, pulling out the petals of a daisy, saying, he loves me... he loves me not, and hoping that the last petal would state that ... he loves me!!!!

Remember?

I combined that inspiration with 2 challenges... the sketch from freshly made sketches #31 and the vibrant colors of the play date cafe to create my card for today.

Please click on images for a better view :-)
