Less is more week 52

Hi there!

Firstly... a big congratulations to simply less is more with this milestone!

My card says "thanks a million" for the inspiration every week!

I remember the day, long before I started blogging, that I discovered Chrissy's blog... and a very clear thought came up in my mind... THIS is what I like... love... and this is the type of cards I want to make!

It took me some time then to start a blog, and even more time to start entering the LIM challenge, because I    felt a little bit intimidated by all the wonderful talent!
But now... after almost 5 months of playing along... I really feel at home!

For today's card I punched 7 rows of tulips, colored them with promarkers, and placed them according to the sketch . Added the sentiment and that's it! Clean, simple, and easy!






Hope you like it!
