Hi all, a quick one this evening, as I've left it a bit too close for comfort for this week's Less is More Challenge. I thought I'd combine it with CAS-ual Fridays too, so hopefully it will be accepted as a CAS card for LIM, as I realised after I had made it there isn't a great deal of white space - ah well, I put it down to experience!
So, CAS-ual Fridays would like a shaped card, and Less is more would like:
"For our challenge this week we would like to see you use
SHADES of BLUE
You can use a white card base, but we do want to see more than one colour of blue, not just one!"

And here is my take:

I have used a Go-Kreate die cut for the shaped cream card base, and cut a turquoise panel in the middle die shape. I then stamped some beautiful scrolls from the new release by Waltingmouse Stamps Flourishes - Scallops and Dots.
I used Distress Ink Tumbled Glass for the scrolls to make a frame, and then Weathered Wood to stamp the little dotted oval, from WMS Fancy Phrases set.
The sentiment is from Dainty Doilies, also by WMS, stamped in Weathered Wood.
Around the edge of the turquoise panel I sponged some chalk ink Aspen Mist and Colorbox Sky Blue.
Finally added some sweet little blue roses.
Thanks for stopping by,
Pauline xx

That's a lovely shape of card! The flourishes are lovely and understated too. About the large font - you've probably looked at the font size on the tool bar when you're in compose mode in blogger? Vx
Love the shape you chose Pauline - so rich and elegant looking. The swirls are just fabulous !
Lovely card Pauline
WE do prefer more blank white space ideally, but, lovely nevertheless
Thank you
