Well it feels like we have fast-tracked this week to Friday! :) lol. Which is not a bad thing as my internet has been throttled again until the end of the month, so its like pulling teeth uploading pictures - bah!.
Anyway, it doesnt stop me crafting :) so I made this card today using one of my favourite LOTV images (Pom Pom).
I didnt really want to make another bright and fizzy card, so I have opted for a bit of coffee, cream and dark chocolate. I distressed and hand-stitched K&Co papers, die cut some chocolate leaves and used gold stickles. I used the sketch over on Cute Card Thursday, and also followed the themes of coffee and cream on Simon Says Stamp and circles on the Lili of the Valley challenge.
I am entering this card in the following challenges:
Simon Says Stamp - Coffee and Cream
Lili of the Valley - Circles
Cute Card Thursday - Fab Sketch by Christine
Top Tip Tuesday - Bling it on
A Spoonful of Sugar - Birthday Wishes
Bearly Mine - Ribbons and Pearls
Do You Stack Up - Anything Goes
The Ribbon Girl - Pink, Brown and Cream
Rainbow Lady - Shabby chic
Frosted Designs - Use metal - I have metal charm and 2 metal brads
Thanks ever so for popping by and commenting, and I wish everyone lots of luck in these challenges. :)
