Second Attempt

You may recall that a few days ago I entered this week's Less is More challenge and said that I started my card, struggled, revisited the challenge to check on the detail, discovered I hadn't read it correctly and so started again.  Well I don't like to waste cardstock so I played around with my original design and finished up with this which is very definitely shades of green but I confess when I enter it over at Less is More I think that Chrissie and Mandi will not find enough 'white' space, but it conforms in other ways of monochrome, so sorry Ladies if it doesn't work completely with you, but I just wanted to remind folk not to throw away disasters as you can always find a solution. 
Have a great day!

It may lack white space, but I think it is totally beautiful and for me it is still a clean and simple design but I think we all interpret CAS differently :-)
Great reuse of your 'mistake' too!

Well rescued Zoe, great when you can huh!
As you said we prefer more white 'blank' space..more the letter really!

Super card though, lovely stamping
Thank you so much
