didn't have any time to experiment with all the packing I haven't yet started.

LIM comes first :O)

I love all the framed cards I've been seeing on LIM,

L.I.M - SENTIMENT

Less is More weekly challenge !! 

One layer card with the "Sentiment" as the focus.

I've finished my card and I'm really happy with it 
As I don't use this stamp as often as I should.
I did wonder if my double layer butterfly might be outside the guidelines
BUT all OK :O)

 

 My stamp reads - 

Friends are Angels who lift us to our feet when our Wings 

have trouble remembering how to Fly.
