For a Special Lady

Hi Folks
Friday at last.  It has been a long week this week struggling with a cold and sore throat.  I am feeling much better now though and looking forward to my trip to Ally Pally tomorrow.  I have a little list of items to look for but I am sure a lot more will make their way into my shopping bag lol.

Today I want to share a card that I have made using Angelica and Friends papercraft collection from Crafters Companion.  I am also going to be entering this the Crafters Companion monthly challenge 'Floral' which is now over on Facebook.


The image and backing paper and little corners are from the papercraft collection.  I matted the image onto a doily and the backing paper onto silver mirror card.  The flowers have been made using a Die'sire quilling flower die 'Blissful flower'.  I have made them out of coloured vellum and have added a pearl centre.  They are quite delicate.  The sentiment was from my stash and has been matted onto silver card.  The final addition was some blue ribbon and a bow.  

Thanks for popping by and would love to know what you think  I do love reading all your comments.  Will hopefully be back on Sunday with a photo of my new crafty stash.
