Pretty in Pink

Good morning everyone

What a horrible day here, thick fog and frosty so I know where I'll be today!!

Today's card has been commissioned so I hope the lady will like it.

I've used pretty papers from Anna Marie Designs 'Blissful Pink' pad.

I used a daisy stencil with modelling paste to form a bigger circle

around the sentiment and just popped a pink crystal gem in the centre of each daisy.

I then die cut and inked a circle and stamped the lovely sentiment by

Lili of the Valley.

The flowers have been dusted with crushed ice and I've added some 

pearls to give an added feature.

Hi everyone

Now that Christmas is well and truly behind us I thought

I would share this very pretty card with you. I chose a

pink, green and white colour combo.
I've layered up several die cut square shapes and

added this beautiful chipboard vase of flowers

and just added a pearl embellishment to the centre of each flower

to make them stand out even more.
