Mellow Yellow

There is a colour challenge at Less Is More this week and the colour is yellow. It's not a colour that I use very much in my stamping as a rule but this is what I came up with.
I used an old favourite Hero Arts stamp of a freesia and inked it  with wild honey and forest moss Distress Inks and stamped it to the right of my folded card.The sentiment is an Art Impression stamp which is also stamped with forest moss ink.  A very quick and easy card this week.    

I am also entering this at My Time To Craft; Happy Healing -  get well card.

Crafty Boots Challenges; Yellow.  

Thank you  for all your lovely comments each one is truly appreciated.

    I don't think I've ever seen a freesia stamp before but they're amongst my favourite flowers.
    Lovely with the simplicity of the stamp & your ink colours with the sentiment.

    Now if I were to try this...... it would take me a whole week to get it right! One layer just puts my teeth on edge.
