Seeing Red...

Well, after lots of sneaky peeks, I thought it was time to put some "real stuff" on my blog.... She's coming in with the cards! As many of you know, amongst all my full blown inky antics, lies a passion for simplicity and purity.

This week at Less is More we can mix things up, so I playing with a touch of red, squares and ribbon to name but a few.

 I think a lot of my arty notions reflect my dance training. I've studied classical ballet, modern jazz and contemporary dance with a real love for choreography. I think this style is kind of akin to the ballet. Purity, a sense of line and definite shapes.

 I can never get enough of red and white and decided to break open my new Ranger Vermilion ink pad. I'm glad to say it's true red, red... if you know what I mean!

The stamp is one of my first ever and a real favourite from Hampton Art. I used it a while back in a similar way, but I really wanted to see how things would look in such a vibrant tone. Mucho likey...

A strong image and pure colours do all the talking... I added a little ribbon and lace to set them off, choosing textured card stock for a little more detail.

After stamping and cutting them all out, I just played around with them seeing how they fitted together. It might sound strange, but give them a moment and they will tell you how they feel...

Thanks very much for calling by and taking a peek...does the red do it for you??? Ok, she's signing off...
