Happy 2nd Birthday "Less Is More"

So a little under two years ago my life changed... I started blogging when my Grandpa passed to take my mind off it and one of the first challenges I found was Less Is More... The first challenge I entered was number 3 ... I can't believe that was 2 years ago now!!.
Every Saturday morning I would bounce out of bed (literally) to find out what Chrissie and Mandi had challenged us with that week... I never imagined I would be showing you my creations on the blog every week to inspire (hopefully) all those faithful LIMettes!
Since the creation of Less Is More, many CAS challenges have popped up in blog world showing everyone that "less really is more" and you don't need layer upon layer and hundreds of flowers and embellishments to make fabulous cards!!  So raise your scissors to wish Less Is More a
Happy 2nd Birthday 
Ok so enough waffling now... On to this weeks challenge which is a colour challenge and has to be an all time favourite ...
Kraft & Kreme!!! 
Here is my card for this week
