Helllo my lovelies, I hope you're enjoying this glorious weather, isn't it bliss to have blue sky and sunshine. I had a wonderful day yesterday at the Summer Crafting show and treated myself to lots of crafty goodies to keep me out of mischief as I've got a week off work now :-) We've got a new challenge starting at Fashionable Stamping Challenges and our theme is 'Flora and Fauna', as usual there is a $20 voucher up for grabs from our generous sponsor Flonzcraft so ink up those stamps and join in to be in with a chance to win. As always my talented DT sisters have created some stunning projects to inspire you so grab a cuppa and have a look at them here.
I made this card with one of the beautiful stamps from the Vintage Fashion ladies set, its been embossed with white ep on a distress ink background with little pearls in the conrers. I've added lots of yellow gingham, don't you just love gingham?? The image is layered up over some cheesecloth and I've added some lemon and white lace, paper flower from Wild Orchid Crafts and a little butterfly charm.
I'm entering this card in the following challenges:
One Stop Craft: summer colours
Totally Papercrafts: all of a flutter
Wild Orchid: Daisy daisy
thanks so much for popping by today
