Good Afternoon everyone!
Last week I participated in the Less is More blog challenge, I really enjoyed doing something a little different to my usual style, so I popped over this morning to have a look at this weeks challenge, it's a sketch!
I love sketches, and recently bought a book of card sketches for when inspiration runs away from me and leaves me needing help, so this is a great challenge for me.
I had a few ideas so don't be surprised if you see more than one card for this challenge.
If you'd like to join in the challenge, or have a look at all the other wonderful entries please pop over there, just click on this link.
So here is my card
In the challenge we were asked to use DL cards, which definitely left more 'white space' which is a good thing over at 'Less is More'.
This stamp is from the Crazy for Cupcakes set, I never really took much notice of this lovely little balloon, well when there's a cupcake around who takes much notice of anything else?!
I also added glitter to the balloons, here's a close up, I hope that isn't breaking any rules of the challenge.
Here's the recipe
Stamps Crazy for cupcakes, Curly Cute (sentiment)
Paper, Brights DSP stack, Real Red CS, Daffodil delight CS, Pumpkin pie CS, Whisper white CS
Ink, Staz on, chocolate chip
Accessories, Marina mist satin ribbon, white gel pen, scallop circle punch, stamp-a-ma-jig, 2-way glue pen, dazzling diamonds glitter.
Hope you like my second attempt at 'less is more', I'd love to know what you think, so please leave a comment if you'd like.

I was like you and wondered if I'd broken the rules as I used all coloured paper and no white space... think your glitter on the ballons sets off the card and I really like the colours you've used - they make me think of happy smiles!
Great card. I have never used the baloon in that set-thanks for the inspiration.
