Evening all, here I am...... back again like a bad penny! Can't believe I'm actually blogging every day at the moment.
I've had a great day crafting, made 9 cards, whoohoo, and I've done my first 5 Christmas cards for 2013. Christmas cards are so much more enjoyable when you're not on a time-limit :-)
Tonight's card is the one my lovely cyber-friend chose for her daughter,,,,I made 3 for her to pick from, and got to say I liked this one best too.
The background card, from Papermill was inked and then ran through a butterfly embossing folder.
Pink doily, gems, lace and ribbon are from my stash
Butterfly dies from Cheery Lynn, black doily die from Marianne, the sentiment is by Tsunami Rose and was cut with a Spellbinder classic circle.
I used some mica mixed in with ink for the background colour, can you see it on the sentiment?
I love this gorgeous wired ribbon,,,,it just stays where it's put!
I really like this card..... pink and black always look so good together, and the pink is much more vibrant 'in the flesh', so to speak.
Well, that's it again for today....hope you like what you see.
Thanks in advance for all the wonderful comments that are left every day, I do really appreciate them all
