Sugar bowl Challenge 8

Hope everyone enjoying the weekend!
I've been having a lazy morning and just made this card for the fantastic challenge they have over at The Sugar Bowl! Have you seen what they have as a prize! I am positively drooling over the sugary sweet stamps!

Have gone a bit mad for the lace, ribbons and pearls on here but love this modern/vintage mix at the moment. Click on the photos to get a better look as not so clear otherwise!


Had a moment of ickle inspiration as to what I could do with a tiny bit of lace left over! (Must find out where to get more!) Apologies if everybody has already thought of this anyway! I just thought it looked nice and wanted to share!


I twisted it round to make a pasta bow shape:



...and then finished it off with a prima flower, centred with an eyelet and adhesive pearl. Hey presto pretty flower with vintage twist!


For my card I used:
Sugar nellie stamp: Elisabeth Bell - my favourite!
K and Co - McKenna
Pink petticoat sentiment
lace and ribbon from stash
prima flower
eyelet
pearls (self adhesive)
Hope you all like!

Friday Sketchers Missed you card

Back again!
Here is my entry for the friday sketchers challenge, loved the sketch and needed to make a card for my parents who are coming back today from holiday and it feels like they have been gone forever! Soppy I know but when you can make cards I think everyone will agree that you find lots of silly little reasons to make one for! even if it is 'just because'!

Any hooo! I do ramble on, here it is:





Isn't she cute?! I decided to use the colour combo from this weeks Colour create again as I enjoyed the combination so much. It has a sweet spring/summery feel.
Here is what I used:
Sugar Nellie Stamp: daisy
Pink petticoat paper: pretty doodles on white
ribbon from stash
nestabilities circle
woodware trimmer scalloped blade
computer generated sentiment
sizzix label die
Hope people approve, if you do please leave a comment as I love to read them, equally if you don't - tell me how you would change it, always up for constructive criticism!
