Too Many Layers


So those LIM girls are at again choosing a colour challenge with a colour that the majorityof us hate YELLOW! 
I won't be entering my card again, I think there's two many layers and now I'm not entering it I wish I had embossed the middle panel but those Clouds from Francoise Read Balloon stamp set are well and truly stuck.
The sun is the Sizzix daisy die that is now available from Stampin Up but with a large circle for the centre.
Oh well have to think of something else.

OH, I don't think there are to many layers at all. This is really a very nice card. The center looks fine without embossing, the clouds are placed randomly enough to not make it look empty. You should enter it in the challenge.

I'm with you! Yellow as a main colour is not my fave (having made a yellow school bus card the other day, which was out of character for me). I still think this card is clean and simple. I say put it up at LIM - the worst they can do is take it down, and that doesn't take away anything from the card, which is just as cute as can be!

Hi Debby I love this card but I do agree when I saw that yellow was the colour for the challenge even I had to stop and think did I have any ink pads in yellow? It is not a colour that I use much, but as for your card I think the design is terrific the die cuts look great.

Thanks for your tips. One thing we have noticed is always that banks and also financial institutions have in mind the spending behavior of consumers and also understand that a lot of people max out there their real credit cards around the holiday seasons. They prudently take advantage of this kind of fact and commence flooding the inbox and also snail-mail box together with hundreds of no-interest APR credit card offers immediately after the holiday season comes to an end. Knowing that in case you are like 98% of American community, you'll hop at the possiblity to consolidate personal credit card debt and shift balances to 0 interest rates credit cards.
