Flower handbags - You can never have too many!!!!!!!!!!!!!

stampin up demonstrator uk zoe tant

 Hi all it seems that I joined the Less is More first challenge right at the end of the week, so this week I'm in at the beginning hence two in as many days.  Their challenge of Clean and Simple this week is a single layer of cardstock with the use of flowers or trees.  I've very cheekily used flowers to make handbags and as the card says 'it's a girl thing'.  I've used our gorgeous new in colours from left to right concord crush, pear pizzazz and peach parfait.  They wish you away to a beautiful day in Italy, lounging outside a cafe eating a gigantic icecream!  Well as I've already said 'it's a girl thing!'  The stamp set is the level three hostess gift Playful Pieces and you only have to go to that cafe and imagine what wonderful pictures you can create using this set. Children love it because it's full of marvellous shapes and as we know they don't struggle for imagination.  My Charlie is a great one for imagination.  When his sister asked him recently which surname he would choose if he had the choice he quickly replied "Claus because then I would be related to Santa and Rudolf!"  I leave you with that thought, but worry not I shall not be stamping "C word" cards anytime soon!!!!!!!
Have a great weekend and I look forward to seeing all the ladies coming to our papercraft day in Alford tomorrow.
Hugs Zx
