This week the
Less Is More Challenge is "off centre" or "center" as we call it here.... you would think this would be a simple challenge for me, but I "trashed" 6 cards before I decided to rethink it...those darn hot air balloons anyways........so my card is double off center..I stamped the background image off center and added my glittery butterfly off center (not to mention the sentiment). I have a friend that her Dad passed away last week, so this card will go in the mail to her today.....I wanted to mention the background stamp has been in my stash for 7 years.....this is the first it has seen ink.....I have a few other ideas for it... I kind of like it! I would love to have you as a "follower"...am trying to reach a goal...and comments are always welcome! Ink used was SU Kiwi Kiss and Basic Black...butterfly was cut with from a SU Beautful Wings die...sentiment is also from SU.....
Added this second card to this post...as it is somewhat off center, too...I made this one a few weeks back ....

Both cards are very classy. Love the little butterflies. x
stunning card, I think we are all guilty of having stash that has never been removed from it's packaging, but it's beautiful!

Less is more and you proved it! They are both very elegant!
Both cards are gorgeous but I have a soft spot for embossing so it will have to be the second.
