Lilac and Lace - Sweet Stampin



How daft has the weather been then!! lol  It was so warm here yesterday I took my dogs for a swim and had all the windows open!  What a lovely end to the summer :)

Todays DT card is for our new challenge over at Sweet Stampin which is Lilac and Lace.  We are sponsored by Tiffany Doodles, and this is such a pretty theme I hope you find time to play along.

I used a gorgeous digi-stamp from Crafts and Me (which I have had for ages!) and the papers are Flowersoft.  Flowers are WOC, and the strandy glitter was a freebie with a magazine this week. :)

I am entering this card in the below competitions:

Crafts and Me - Flowers
Simon Says Stamp - Anything Goes
Crafty Catz - Things with Wings
CES Challenges - Totally Gorjuss/Pretty girls
ABC Challenge - Anything Goes - welcome back ABC! :)
Bunny Zoe Challenge - Fab sketch
Allsorts - Flowers

Thanks so much for looking at my blog today, have a smashing weekend and good luck to everyone in the challenges.

    Hi Alison, I have just caught up with what's been happening with yoru internet - you fight them! We're with Virgin broadband combo (TV with all the "frills" and phone too) all for a bit less that £60 a month and there aren't any real limits on the internet, (fine for me anyway)is that something you could switch to in Scotland? ) Sky and BT probably do similar? It doesn't sound right this lot. Anyway, onto your fab card...Love this beautiful fairy image and those delish embellies and I love the way she is holding those little pearls. beautiful card Alison, Hugs, Teresa x

    Love the contrast ing accents of green hir & twirly bits on the flowers. The little butterflies just really bring out the shape of her wings too & that glitter combines with the feathery nature of her hair & wings so well.
