It's OLC week... Less Is More #102 Sports or Exercise

Morning LIMettes... Wow so man entries last week... you really loved the colour challenge... I still have a few of you to visit today....  Anyhow onto this weeks One Layer challenge at Less Is More and the theme is...

Sports or Exercise
Here are my cards for this week...




For my first card this week I used a digi image from Mo Manning Image and a swimming quote I found on the internet and manipulated them in word to line them up.  Very simply by adding a text box I could move the text around until it was in the right place.... I then coloured in the image with my promarkers and lined the back of the inside of the card.  I have the perfect recipient for this card too....



For my second card, I stamped an LOTV image into the centre of the kraft card blank and then coloured with my flexmarkers so it had a tone on tone effect.  I then punched some holes into the front and threaded through twine from Ribbon Girl.  The sentiment is LOTV and the tag from MFT die-namics.

I can't wait to see what you come up with....

Love the sepia tones on your little boy with the football - just gorgeous. And the swimming image is so cute!

You picked a tough challenge this week - but should be fun.

Hi Jen what a stunning tone on tone card. The Mo one is great but my word I struggled with text boxes! Oh well I got the effect I wanted without in the end...

These are so sweet, Jen!! I've been avoiding using the digis b/c I have so many images uninked, but your swimming card has me rethinking my stance!
