Squares mmmm.............sounds like fun! LIM 17

Hello and look it's squares all over LIM number 17, that's Less is More if you are a newbie and jolly welcome if you are :0)
Chrissy LadyLIM  and Mandi Diva LIM are challenging us,

For our challenge this week we have a multiple choice.... well sort of ... you can choose which of the 5 SQUARES from our plan you wish to use to place the image of your card, leaving the rest as PURE WHITE SPACE!







I chose the center because my image was small and I thought it needed center stage, I've left it as CAS as I dare!
I needed inspiration today so I took myself off to the Craft Barn again and here I found some new to me stamps, never heard of them before cArt-Us, lovely and cheap and very detailed. I just had to have it! Cheeky little chappies eh!!!
I thought Anniversary or wedding or engagement perhaps. They are Lovebirds after all :0)

I have coloured with Copics and their beaks are clear dimensional glaze. Off now, going to have a surf,  doesn't that sound as if I know what I'm doing?? 'course it does, LOL
Oh! and if anyone happens on my lovely followers on their travels will you please send them back, I'm getting lonely over here all on my own, I miss them :{ xxx
