Colour of eyes-Less Is More

This week, Less Is More challenged us to make a card based on the colour of our eyes! I thought this would be an easy one but I've struggled! Thankfully I had a birthday card to make so used that opportunity to have a go.
On the first I splashed Cosmic Shimmer paint, stamped the Art Journey image then masked it while I added the text-the fabulous En Francais from Stampin' Up!



The second one I used the free stamp off this month's Craft Stamper. I stamped it in Brilliance Ice Blue and added a darker blue embossed image. It didn't come out the way I'd hoped so I'll probably cut it up and use the images elsewhere!

    I think the bottom one looks pretty good. How were you hoping it would turn out?

    Both cards are lovely but the first one is a real stunner! I love the background and the way it shows through that fabulous focal image. Vx

    Such cool cards and what a lovely colour your eyes are... Both the cards have so much character but the second one took my heart away...

    Wow. That first card is just stunning! I love the "careless" look of it with the big swish of colour. Gorgeous stamp too (oh and I'm another fan of "En Francais"! :D)
