A Card for the Last LOTV Challenge - Pink, White & Silver


Good morning all....hope this finds you all well and not too chilly...I thought I would do a quick post while Mum is still in bed...as it takes me most of the morning to get her up and going....anyway...this is my entry for the last LOTV challenge :-( for those who follow my blog know that these darling little stamps are my second love next to my beloved Tilda...I bought loads at the NEC in November and most are still unused...(oh the shame)...I have entered most of the LOTV challenges...not in the hope of winning (mind you that would have been fantastic) but to be chosen to be in the Top 3 would have been a dream come true...but alas..it was never to be...but I still love them and I will be taking part in the Challenge that Jacqui will be running in the New Year....
Ok..about my card...I used my very fav stamp from last year..she is coloured with copic's...the DP is by Craft Creations and a tiny piece from NitWits...(it has pink snowflakes on and then I covered it all up..Doh!!)I used WOC flowers and took out the stemens and added some silver Flower Soft..I cut leaves using a Cheery Lynne die and I was determined to use that Marianne Christmas tree die on it somewhere...I struggled a bit...and the jury is still out as to whether I like it or not...so I just added my usual plague of pearls and loads of sparkle..



Well I better get going...I hope to get Mum sorted and then have a little bit of crafty time later....
Have a fab weekend
