Geometrical ......



I have just made this card for the Less is More Blog Challenge No. 271 whose theme is one layer with 'Geometric Shapes or Patterns'.

I started with a 5 x 7 inch plain white card and chose a Cuttlebug embossing folder which I inked in various colours of Memento dye ink.




I passed the card through the Sizzix and embossed and transferred the ink onto the card at the same time.



The sentiment is from ISC and was inked in Versafine black and stamped as shown.

    Really like your colour combinations and the bold design is offset with the small sentiment in an unobtrusive font.
    Well done.

    Amazing card, Sid! I actually thought you had applied some glossy paste or something - the peeking white between the colors looks great too!
