ColourQ Challenge #121 & Mojo Monday #225 - TwoFer!

I took a bit of a break on challenges, but I'm back with a "twofer"!! I'm using the colors from ColourQ (mostly!) and the layout from Mojo Monday!

&

My card for these challenges:

Close Up

Side View
Recipe:
Stamps: Surprise Tilda
Paper: Poppy Parade, Old Olive, Crumb Cake, Cryogen White, Twitterpated DSP
Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black, Copics
Accessories: Liquid Applique

I was just itching to add, add, add to this card, but I resisted and stayed true to the layout, lol! I wanted to add brads, or ribbons, or pearls, or glitter, or something!!!! What do you think?? Less is more? Or just less??

I love the card. The dimensions are awesome.
It's nice to see a Christmas card too. I can't help myself.

Love seeing your creations in true colour.

It is sooooo much fun to craft with you on skype but the colours never show true.

Definitely less is more with this card chick.

Enjoy Florence tomorrow.

I think it is great. Sometimes less really is more. The simplicity makes your art work stand out. Great job!

I personally love it. I think the dimension with the puffpaint? is enough to make the image pop. Very snazzy.

Darling card, Jeannie! I love how the white trim on the hat and dress pop, and you've chosen such a fun mix of papers for the panels. Thanks for sharing this with us at the ColourQ!
