Flower Squares

I've been following the Less Is More challenge blog since it started but this is the first week that I've made a card for one of their challenges.  The theme is 'three squares' so I've used one of my oldest Little Claire stamps (mine is a wood mounted one which shows how long I've had it!) and coloured the flowers with Promarkers.  It look a bit of time to get it all lined up - just goes to show that less isn't always easy!!

Stamp - Boxed Flowers by Little Claire Designs
Peel off greeting

As well as the Less is More challenge, I'd like to enter the card in the following:
Stamp Something - flowers
Totally Gorjuss - black plus one colour

    This is really cute Helen!
    You did well lining it up and it's not too minimalist!
    I love it!

    Helen, this is so cute! The more I see of this shape card the more I want to try it! What is the exact measurements? What size envelope does it fit? Adorable card!

    I love this tall, narrow card! What a cute way to use three squares, especially with the sentiment in between like that. It works perfectly! I'm going to have to try some different card sizes.

    This is beautiful Helen. Love your use of the DL shape instead of the usual square. Thanks for joining us at TG this week.

    Very crisp and clean looking. I don't find these challenges easy either. Keeps us on our toes though. x
