Tut! what pants! :( I had just typed all my post out, and then blogger crashed, deleted it from drafts, and I lost all my links ...........and now the plot! :( grrrr!
Anyway, our new challenge over at the Joanna Sheen Challenge this time is 'Summer Daze' and I used this glorious Faye Whittaker decoupage sheet from a set called 'In the Garden'. These really are a fabulous size and sooooo beautiful! Its lovely sometimes to just sit cutting out, and I had a lot of fun with this.
I matted and layered lilac and white bazzil card, and attached some flocked mesh with floral brads. I dug out my flowersoft and added it to the beautiful bonnets and the lavender in the lane, and used an MS punch for the borders. This is an 8 x 8 scalloped card, so a really good size! :) I hope you find time to play along and visit the rest of the DT too and see their wonderful creations!
I hope everyone has a smashing Sunday,

I love your pretty decoupaged image, Alison, and those flowersoft blooms are beautiful. Gorgeous card, as always x
Hope the new arrival is settling in. Love those little bouquets you created - the white & lilac is a perfect backdrop for the images & I love the way the red & yellow of the little girl's dress under her pinafore is visible & becomes so eye-catching with the subtleness of the white & lilac.
