Quite a simple card for me today, not to fussy!. Hop on over to the Lacy Sunshine blog to see some more inspiring creations from the Design Team.....and say hello to our newest Lacy Sunshine girls:)
- I have coloured the adorable Marina in with my copics and added some Gelly Roll pen- clear sparkle. I decided to leave the Stickles off this card!
- I have cut the base card out using Spellbinder Grand Decorative Oval and also used them to layer up my image. I have die cut Marina out using Spellbinder Opulent Ovals.
- The papers that I have used are from LOTV - Beach Bliss.
- The flowers, pearls and Rhinestone sparkles are from The Hobby House.
- The pearl strings are from my crafty stash and the ribbon is from Sir Stampalot.
- I have added some pearlescent lilac ink to the tiny starfish before adhering it to the centre of the bow.
I would like to enter my card into the following challenges:
Chocolate, Coffee and Cards- anything goes
Sister Act Challenge - anything goes
4 Krafty Girlz - anything goes
