I was hoping to return with a half decent card today, but Mrs Mojo decided to abandon me and I've thrown so many rubbish attempts in the bin... only one card survived! The challenge at Less is More this week is 'punches or die cuts' and I really did try to be clever, but I gave up in the end and my effort is very ordinary...
I used a set of nesties - Labels 14 - that I bought recently from Pink Gem Designs, and did lots of inking. Even that wasn't going well for me today and I kept messing pieces up and starting again, and then I managed to dunk the first card blank in brown ink too. The image and sentiment are from a Flourishes set and the swirl is Eco Green. Card blank and nestie shape cut from ivory linen card, and the ribbon is from my stash.
You never know, maybe the mojo will come back tomorrow and I might have a better day Still trying to catch up with you all as usual - I'll get there eventually!
