Provo craft leaf


Less is more challenge week 34, and this time they have given us a sketch to follow, and I needed a card to say Thank you to my friend Ann for taking me out for the day yesterday, we drove to the North Coast of Somerset, and saw the magnificent view from the church at Selworthy (this was our coffee stop) we then travelled up Porlock hill and along the coast to Lynmouth, had lunch there and then went up the Victorian water power lift to Lynton. We then travelled onto Tarr Steps for tea, before retuning home, a most enjoyable day.
The card - first I used my Prova craft leaf to cut out a shape, on the Orange card I printed 'Thank You' several times using Papyrus font, and mounted the leaf on top. I ran a metallic gold pen aroung the edges, and I did this also on the card. The sentiment was computer generated again with Papyrus font.
