This is my favourite sort of card. A girly image, glitter, pink and purple, pretty borders and flowers. I also love easel cards and haven't made one for a few weeks.Here's a close up of the front of the card.
The fab fairy was a Friday freebie from the very generous Paula at Pollycraft. She has a some gorgeous new images out today so I had to treat myself to a few. There is a also a great sale on some of the clear stamps and a couple of Christmas ones hopped into my basket. The purple paper is from Craftwork cards, another purchase from Ally Pally. Pink papers are Papermania capsule and FF pink parfait. I used 2 different MS border punches. I had a look through my stash and found this metal sentiment which matches the card so well. I also found some odd flowers which I put together and the fabric sparkly butterfly.Challenges:
