Big Flower!

Good evening everyone, I'm a bit late in the evening with this one but I wanted to enter the Creative Inspirations Wednesday challenge which is for a project using pink and cream.



I'm not sure why I added another photo because I think you can probably see the layering in the first photo lol! In real life the card is not as pale as it looks here and the buttons match the DP from K&Co and the flower which is Stackies from Polka Doodles

I distressed the edges of the papers and also added Distress Ink in tattered rose. You might be able to see that I've added some tattered rose to the flower layers and the sentiment as well.

This card should some other challenges too :-

Truly Scrumptious :- Sketch and buttons and bows.

Allsorts :- Distressed plus buttons and a bow.

Creatalicious challenge :- No stamped images.

I quite like this card! I love the DP and I think the flower worked quite well but you can always tell me if it is rubbish. constructive criticism is alway welcome. Wouldn't do if I thought all my work was wonderful. I'm more likely to think my cards are not very good actually. But probably a lot of us are guilty of that, aren't we?

I'm off to post this and enter the challenges and finish off my Tesco order.

Just Magnolia 23.

Hi girls it's me again with another card. I always like to enter the Just Magnolia challenge if I can so I managed to do this quick card and hopefully I will be in time to enter it. I love this Tilda with Ladybird which I coloured with Promarkers. I used this spotty DP from Basic Grey june bug and the floral is from American Crafts. I edged the floral with my Martha Stewart floral lace punch and put a piece of plain red through the Cuttlebug in the swiss dots folder. The flower is made up of 3 stackies from Polka Doodles and I stickled the centre of it. The spotty ribbon is from my stash.

Not sure if I liked it while I was making it but now that it is done I like it a wee bit better lol!!

I'm off to post it now and enter the Just Magnolia challenge before it is too late! I'm also going to enter the Polka Doodles challenge for the first time.
