Floral Fantasy



A Spoon Full of Sugar Challenge

The Challenge this week on SFOS is Florals, what a lovely theme. Lots of stunning creations by my fellow Dt members on the challenge blog so pop over have a look and come and join us.


I am so sorry to all of you who received that compromised e-mail from me yesterday, hope not too many of you opened it, I am assured it e-mails everyone on your contact list and then disappears, it does not actually hack into any secure areas of your PC. By the time I had calmed down and run a full virus scan, I had about half an hour left to make my card for todays challenge, so this is the quickest card ever, and it shows.

I have used one of the "Charming" Pixies from Charmed cards and Crafts download for this card, she has been coloured with Copics,(I wish I knew of some Watercolour Paper that is thin enough to go through the Printer as I think she would look great coloured with Inks). I used the Dahlia Nestie and a Cuttlebug Corner die to add some shapes to the card, and of course my beloved Wild Orchid Craft Roses. The ribbon is from a Raspberry Ribbon Monthly Kit.



I will be back to post another card made with one of Mos fabulous Line Drawings later I was hoping to have it ready for this morning, but have to add the finishing touches.

Still No news I am afraid on the baby front, she must be very comfortable in there!!

Thanks for looking
Hugs
Jacqui xx

Beautiful card Jacqui & no sign of a rushed job.
