This one is a Magnolia cutie from the fairytale range (sentiment from Whiff of Joy) and I've just teamed her with bit of design paper that was laying on my desk and had the right colours to match. Sponged the background around her with distress ink to soften the stark white.
Used the fab Cheery Lynn heart doily die behind the image which was cut out and matted with nesties labels die and an MFT leaf flourish die (my obsession with their dies is still going strong as they keep coming out with so many fab ones!). Added some flowers and lilac baubles to finish. Decorated the inside to match.
And that's all the cards I have to show at the moment. Have my crochet project left to show you and I'm currently trying to finish knitting a scarf I started last xmas for hubby - hopefully in time for this xmas LOL.
I'm currently trying to resist all the fab new goodies slowly trickling in for christmas. Failed with the LOTV xmas stamps LOL (although I was good and only got 5), but just seen all the MME paper pads and more fab Dienamics dies . . not to mention some cute Sassy stamps . ., Hero Arts, . . . and the list just keeps on growing - help :o Off to go put some more goodies in my virtual basket and see if I can resist the 'pay' button LOL
