LIM sketch and wednesday stampers circles






Sometimes two challenges just fall together pefectly and that's what has happened withe the current Less is More Challenge and the wednesday stamper challenge.... and to top it off I had the perfect stamps!!

The circle stamp in the Rogue Redhead Designs bits and pieces plate were the perfect stamp for both of these challenge and all used the flower from the floriculture plate, and the word again from the bits and pieces.

The coloured inks are Jenny Bowlin inks (available from Happy Daze). I have gone over the flower with a white pen (it's like cheating masking!!)
