I can't believe that Less is more is celebrating their 4th birthday already!
I remember the day when I stumbled upon the blog, and thought, wow :
" This is the type of cards I want to make ! "
I was so nervous when I linked my first card to a challenge here, but since that day, I really try my best to join the LIM team every week!
Thanks for all the encouragement over the years ... to not only the DT, but also my fellow participants!
I have two cards for the challenge. Two because I made the first one, and then decided... NOPE... not successful... NOT posting this ... and then my daughter said she LOVES it, which made me decide to show you the first, and second attempt ;)
For the first card I made the striped paper by cutting strips of pink and grey polka dot paper, and glueing it to a piece of typing paper. Then die cut the hearts in different directions and layering it using foam tape. I added a sentiment from " loving thoughts" stamp set by Casual Fridays.
For the second card, I used a digital stamp from Cuddly Buddly. Used the trace and off set function to cut and print.
Colored with promarkers, and added a stamped sentiment and hearts (from Uniko studio )
That's it!
Thanks for visiting me today!

Both cards are fantastic Hannelie and no need to worry on either as they are your usual super duper creations.
Can't choose between them. Thanks for your words about LIM and for playing along in our birthday challenge.

Altwee die kaartjies is pragtig Hannelie. Die olifante is te oulik vir woorde.
Groete,
Amelia
that first card is just way too cool... you come up with the most amazing and creative ideas!! the second card is so sweet!
Two fab cards Hannelie, don't know why you didn't want to post the first, a fun twist on the heart die cut. The elephants are just too cute. :)
No doubt about it your daughter is right! Both cards are fantastic!
OOooooo, vrou, daai eerste kaartjie is stunning, soos net jy dit kan doen!!! Daai harte is net so briljant uitgesny en op mekaar gesit!!!! Dis lieflik en ek's mal oor daai pragtige sentiment - wat 'n spesiale boodskappie en die font lyk so lieflik saam met jou harte!!!! Hou van waar jy die sentiment gesit het en die bling is natuurlik ook perfek geplaas!!!! Dis regtig mooi, vrou!!!
En die olifantjies - tog te skattig en wat 'n cute valentines kaartjie!!! Ek's mal oor die hartjies en strepe waarmee hulle versier is!!!! Die blommetjie is skattig en ek hou van die platvorm waarop hulle staan - pragtig om dieslfde kleur te gebruik as die boonste hartjies!!!! Die klein sentiment pas pragtig daar op sy plek!!! Ek kyk nou weer na die olifantjies en moet net se ek hou van daai pienk wangetjies, die haartjies op die kop, die ougat stertjies en die spiral ore!!! Baie skattig, vrou!!!
Groete en 'n lekker week vir jou hoor!!!
Such gorgeous cards Hannelie, I love them both and I am pleased your daughter persuaded you to share the first one, the design is fabulous and the sentiment is beautiful.

Both so fabulous Hannelie and I personally and so glad that you started posting cards, you always inspire me!
I'm on your daughter's side, Hannelie. I LOVE your first card. Of course, I love your second card, too. I tend to love all your cards. I visited the LIM blogsite and plan to follow them. I'd really like to learn to make less fussy cards, so I need to see LOTS of examples (I'm a slow learner). Thanks so much for all your inspiration, too.
Whichever daughter it was, we have her to thank for you sharing these elegant and stylish stacked hearts, Hannelie ... they're lovely! Fun elephants ... great outfits ... so very cute! Anita :)
I really like the first one, glad you posted it.

Both cards are stunning. Best, CG
They're both totally SWEET, Hannelie! Glad your daughter said she loves it and you shared! ;)
Two great cards! I love the pink and gray and how different they are on both of your cards.
...ummmmm, so which of these two fab cards carries the 'not suitable' label? Whichever it is, poor thing is getting a bum rap cuz these are both GREAT! Love the polka dots and LOVE your coloring - especially the rosy cheeks!
I am so glad we got to see both, the lauered hearts with the different directional patterns really works x
Well. I think that both cards are super... very different in style but both perfect for our challenge!
Thanks so much for your continued support!

SOOOOOO cute!!!!
Two fabulous cards Hannelie, I love the first. Carol x
OH! Beautiful hearts! Gray/pink - great combo! And the elephants are just adorable :)
Hannelie I would like to return the compliment: I look forward to seeing your LIM cards each week! And this week is no exception, you have two super creations here.
Thanks for joining our fourth birthday celebrations at LIM!
