PRETTY LADY

Hi all, today I decided to change my living room around, on my own as usual, but this time it proved a little too much and I have hurt my back.  I took a nice hot shower so will be feeling alot better tomorrow.......I hope, lol.  I am going to take the rest of the night off and relax but I wanted to post this card first, I finished her off yesterday I am hoping that you will like it.

I have used an image from Ching-Chou Kuik called Spring In The Air

I coloured her with both Graph It markers and Copics, the frame is from Tattered Lace that I had delivered yesterday morning, I also used my Spellbinders Corner Dies, and my new Die'sire Quilling Flower Die which came the same time as the frame one and my Joy Butterfly Border die. I added some more flowers, doily, sentiment and some liquid pearls.  The colour scheme is a little different for me but when I put the blue and pink together it seemed to work.

I would like to enter my card into the following challenges:

SIMPLY CREATE TOO - ANYTHING GOES

SISTER ACT CARD - ANYTHING GOES

SCRAP & CRAFTY CHALLENGE - BIRTHDAYS

CUTE CARD THURSDAY - FLORAL DELIGHT

LOVE TO SCRAP - ANYTHING GOES

ANNIVERSARY

Good morning everyone, I actually made a card this week but only because it was by request.  I have had so much trouble with the computer that I lost all heart.  However, after reading all your comments I picked up a few tips and now I can comment by right clicking on the comment button, Blogger is still not as it used to be but I can put up with that as long as I can visit you all and leave you a bit of love. I deleted a Malware programme that I have not really been happy with and that also seemed to make my computer a bit quicker, I am not saying too much in case Blogger or Chrome is listening.

At the beginning of the week my son asked me to make a card for his girlfriend's parents Silver Wedding Anniversary, this is what I came up with and at 3.45 am this morning I was told they loved it.

I have used an 8 x 8 white scalloped card base, I mounted black card stock, silver mirri card and white pearlescent card the latter I embossed with my 8 x 8 Embossilicious Swirl folder.  I then used my Tonic die cuts on black card the white pearlescent, I mounted them to the base card with foam pads for dimension,

I added some Viva Decor Silver Pearl drops, a wide double bow, Lily and a computer generated sentiment.

For once I also decorated the inside of the card mimicking the outside layers with the exception of the die cuts, this time I used X Cut scalloped rectangle dies in the 3 colours, the verse is from my Crafty Caz Ultimate Verse CD, I personalised it to read Mum and Dad, I then added two die cut/embossed silver hearts. 

I would like to enter my card into the following challenges:

SCRAPPING 4 FUN - ANYTHING GOES

SISTER ACT CARD CHALLENGE - ANYTHING GOES

CRAFTY CATZ - BLACK/WHITE PLUS ONE OTHER COLOUR (SILVER)

ALLSORTS CHALLENGE - EMBOSSING

Many thanks to everyone who offered me help with Blogger I am so grateful, I also appreciate the time you have taken to come visit me and leave me a comment on my postings, it really does mean so much to me, Thank You.
