Crafty Ann's Challenge DT Card

Morning all hope you are all well.

Today sees a new challenge at Crafty Ann's the theme is

Shaped Easel Cards

The DT have come up with some stunning creations if you would like to get some inspiration then please check them out.

Here is my DT card

I was fortunate to win some H&S stamped images (thank you Deb) and I have used one on my card, I coloured her with promarkers and sat her on one of Crafty Ann's cup cake images, the bp is also from Crafty Ann's Digi Shop and is the reason I have kept my card quite simple and unadorned I just needed you to see this gorgeous new bp it is even better in real life.

I have used SU Suede card for my base and an Octagon shape, I used a doily to mount the cake and image on I distressed the doily in a soft brown chalk. I added some card candy and a MS punch strip and placed pearls along to highlight.

I wanted to take different photos to show a closer look at both image and papers

I hope you like my card and please come join us at Crafty Ann's

I would also like to apologise for my lack of commenting as I have not been feeling to well this week, my head seems to be apart from my body so if the grammar in my post looks odd that's the reason lol.....instead of my mojo going walkabout it's me brain.

I have started visiting and commenting but it make take me a few days to catch up so please bear with me.
