Less is More-Thank You

This week at the Less is More Challenge is a Lucky Dip-cards for thank you or congratulations.
Here's my entry; I'm going with a pretty Thank You card on white cardstock. Unfortunately from the photo you can't get the feel for the flowers which are purple from Dimensional Pearls, but what I did was dab 4 But I'm ahead of myself. I started with the leaves in a bright green Staz On ink and then stamped the blossoms in black. Both of these stamps are from the now out of business Cornish Heritage Farms and designed by Kim Hughes. The Thank You is from Inkadinkado. Then, as I previously mentioned, I added some purple Pearls to make the flowers pop.
I think the photo would be brighter had we had sunshine outside, but since its rainy and grey, the affect is a bit muted, but still...I'm happy with this card. This is one of those projects where I do think Less is More.
Thanks for stopping by.

    I think the most difficult part about creating is the photo , more often than not a lovely card is ruined by the light or lack of it. Your card is gorgeous perfectly stamped and very classy indeed.

    Lovely card as you say such a shame about the photograph. Do you have a photo editing programme on your PC? try hitting the adjustments in the Image button... and then hit iether auto levels or auto colour or just have a play with different options untill your happy with the results.... hope this helps
