Black & White
I seem to be struggling with the Less is More challenge as I feel my card needs something else , maybe a sentiment but not sure where to place it. Maybe if I had made a different shaped card it might be better. Enough waffle. White base card with a plain black card layer. Image is from Habico stamped in momento ink and layered onto a silver star embossed card. I have added a white ribbon and bow made with my bowmaker. Not usually successful with it but I think it looks okay. Mandi and Chrissie make some fantastic card and I am certainly not it their league but I am trying!!! LOL!!! Any comments or suggestions would really be appreciated.

Hi Maureen, thanks for visiting my blog! I love your card and I think you've nailed the 'less is more' style. What a fabulously detailed stamp too... wow.
Thanks for your lovely comment on my blog. I think your bow looks fine. Haven't tried this type yet, but I think it may take some practice to get it right. I don't think you need to add a sentiment, but maybe you could have centered the image. I think that would make the card more balanced, or maybe even perfect! Love the colour combination, though.
Hi Maureen, thanks for your comment on my card. This is lovely the way it is, like you I keep wanting to add more! Cheers,

Hi Maureen,
This is great, except I think that the others are absolutely on the money when they suggested that the image should be centred above the bow... I just LOVE this image too!
Thanks so much
