LIM - round and round

Hi everyone! I gave the round and round challenge over at Less is More a whirl and this is what I came up with.

I was actually inspired by the quilt that I found on Pinterest seen below. I didn't CASE it 100% but it gave me some ideas on where to start.

Using circle nesties I cut out different sized circles using shades of purple cardstock from Bazzill. To adhere them onto the card base I used K&Company wacky tack.

Flowers are cut from a die from PTI, I also used a Holly die from Sizzix to make the centers of the flowers white. Then I added yellow candy dots from Reflections to it to finish it off. I used a shade purple at first but didn't like the contrast so went with the yellow.

The Hello is from Simon Says Stamp and it was part of a larger saying. I decided to part ways with the other words with a pair of sharp scissors.

Well, that's it for now. Off to clean house and do laundry but hope to get creative in between.

Thanks for stopping by!
