OSAAT Challenge # 235 Daughters/Girls

Good afternoon.  Time again for another DT card for OSAAT.  As you can see the challenge is "Anything goes for Daughters/Girls".  The image I have used is Pansies by CraftyGirl Creations and is available at Stitchy Bear Digital Stamp Outlet and you can find it HERE.  It is quite some time since I have made an easel card and I wanted to show off the quotation/verse and there was no room on the front, so this seemed the ideal way. I guess  this is really for a "big girl".

My Card




Recipe
Card base made from Papermania card stock.
Spellbinders Labels 28
Spellbinders Enchanted Labels 28
Striped paper - free digi from Jak Heath - very old stash
Yellow pearlescent card from stash.
Ribbon and pearls from stash
Quotation and sentiment - computer generated
Promarkers to colour

If you click on the last image you will be able to read the quote which fits the image so well.  I do love my quotes!   A long time ago Marie-Louise  loaned me her Enchanted Labels 28 die and I die cut quite a few before returning it to her. She was so kind!!  I was so very tempted to colour my pansies in purples and mauves because I love those colours and have lots of them in my garden pots.  However I resisted the temptation - gosh it was hard!!

We would love you to join us in the challenge and here is the prize you could win.


Well, that's it for today.  Hope you are all feeling okay and enjoying this fine weather - and her's hoping it lasts too!!
