My Card
Click on image to enlarge picture
I cut my 7" x 5" base card from lilac pearlescent card. The next layer is from the "Time Flies" collection by Craftwork Cards. I stamped the image in Cocoa Brown Memento ink onto cream pearlescent card. I tried black and purple but both were too harsh so I settled for the brown. Stamping onto pearlescent card turned out to be not such a good idea because the image isn't sharp and it is such a shame because it's a lovely stamp. It is rather difficult to see, because the photo is so bad, but the background of the stamp is striped and I coloured the stripes with Promarkers. I matted this onto the largest die from SB Decorative Label 8 using the same lilac card. The flowers are the large and medium rose dies from Britannia and the leaves are Cheery Lynn Wreath Strip. Pearls and organza ribbon tied into a double bow finished it off.
Well that's it from me. I hope you all have a good day.

This is ever so lovely. I can see the image and the pretty stripes...I clicked on your image to look at it aloneand everything showed so beautifully. That is a great sentiment...so true!
Wonderful card, Christine!
Hi Christine
Sorry I'm a day behind.
Your card is soooooo pretty. Love the colours you have used and agree the brown gives a softness to the sentiment.
Today is bright a but nippy. Could be worse.
Best wishes.

It looks beautiful in your photo so I can only imagine how much more stunning it is in real life Christine. I am struggling with taking photographs at the moment - it's just so cold and grey all the time xx
Another elegant creation, Christine. Love the soft colours and the card looks so delicate. Absolutely stunning!
