Weekend challenges

One of my resolutions was to enter some of the challenges I see on various blogs.  Jen entered her first earlier in the week so I thought I'd use this weekend to make a start on mine.

OK I thinks, lets start slowly with a really simple one - Less is More always have loads of really inspirational cards with lots of white space.  Ha! doesn't scare me I says, I can do that - think again!! This was one of the hardest cards ever!  After several hours of playing, thinking and playing some more, I eventually had a card I was happy with (not ecstatic, but content enough).

The theme is Drinks and this stamp is all I had that remotely fit - she's holding a wine glass lol.

 
I got the stamp free on a magazine (Creativity I think) and embossed it with sea foam white embossing powder on navy card stock.  I cut the shape with a Spellbinders Labels 28 die, added "Party!" from the same stamp set in blue ink and a few bits of blue bling.  This is about as minimal as I get at present but I'll persevere.
 
I'm going to try a few more challenges so I'll let you know how they turn out.  TTFN, Jude x
