Two more Dirty challenges for you today. The first is to "embrace the white space" which is very hard to do. The inclination is always to add MORE. This is definitely less, and it has "grown" on me!! :-)
The second challenge was to use vellum. I don't know if you can really tell, but there is a vellum overlay on the dandelion image, which softens the colors. I spent forever getting this bow just right, but I like how it looks!
I doubt I will have time to stamp today, so I'm glad I have a small stockpile of stuff to share with you! :-) You stamp for me, okay? Happy Stamping!

These are gorgeous Jessica! I love that leaf border on the first card and you did a great job with the bow on the second one (fab ribbon too!).
Cheers,

I love the vellum overlay - the soft look it creates is so pretty - I'll have to give that a try!
I love the simplicity of the first card, and yet the image is so striking! Lovely job.
Both cards are so pretty! I really have a hard time leaving white space or any space on cards or scrapbook pages. I love the bow on the second card and the colors! Thanks for sharing.
In the words of your mom, your vellum card is stunning! I love the soft look and the colors and your bow is gorgeous! I like the simplicity of the white card, too!
