Experimenting with Colour Blocking & Less is More

Hello! I hope you are having a good week so far. Today was a slow day for me, not a lot to do at all. I strongly dislike having nothing to do at work, but soooo much I could be doing at home! It just doesn't seem worth it some days, ya know? Anyways, not much to be done about that, a girl's gotta work! :) Oh well, that's enough complaining for one day ;) onto the challenges! I wanted to play along with "Less is More" and Addicted to CAS:

The theme for "Less is More" this week is "lime and black" - a striking combination! So, today I decided to experiment with colour blocking, and with trying to achieve less-is-more. I like how the two elements went together in the end:

I left the white space in the top portion of the card (although it was hard not to add something there!) and kept the bottom right corner as the focus. I stamped the universal background from Close to My Heart in stazon, then used a plain block inked up with lucky limeade to create the colour blocks. A blossom and brad finish the look:

So, what do you think of the experiment? Thanks for looking today!
