Crafty Cardmakers #102 Shabby Chic

Hi all

Second post for me today, not much happened since this morning put all the inserts into cards that were sitting on my desk waiting to be finished off and now they are parcelled up ready for post tomorrow but I will have to go into Ivybridge as our post office has closed down so it is a 10mile round trip if we need to weigh parcels etc.

My card tonight is for a blog I have just discovered Crafty Cardmakers and they have a challenge called Shabby Chic and this is what I have come up with using the stamp that I won in Natalie's 200,000 blog candy and have also used some of the flowers she sent me as well.  Coloured the image with promarkers and fleximarkers used a doily from stash, papers were freebies a long time ago and I have never used them, post card is from Angie's.   Have used a wink of stella on the flowers and butterflies to add some sparkle.  This is way out of my comfort zone but really enjoyed making it. 



Sorry about the picture my lighting is not good in my craft room I used my daylight lamp but obviously not caught all the card with it.  I might try again tomorrow and upload it again, if I can improve on the photo.

Bye for now

Just read your bio, and was giggling as I expected you to say the Jack Russell was also taller than you!!!

Anyhow, this is gorgeous, lots of lovely detail. The flowers and diecuts are so pretty

Thanks for sharing with us

You have some malicious code attached to your website in the form of a pop up I think. My anti virus software has gone mad both when I landed on your page and when I added my comment..... I fully expect it to go off again when I post this comment!
