Just added some snowflake pearls and some pink pearls that matched the colour card.
Made the Poinsettias from a Robert Addams die I won on the Pixies Snippets Playground many years ago.
The sentiment is a Sue Wilson one which if I remember correctly Maureen also sent me a few years ago also.

MOVING ALONG WITH THE TIMES...............FLOWERS CHALLENGE 118


Hi and welcome to all my very talented, and craft loving friends.

It's the first of the month again, and it's time for another challenge over at
The theme this time around is flowers, and the lovely Jodie is your host for this challenge.
The challenge runs till the end of May.

So here is what I created for my DT.



This is an 8"x7" size card. 
I made my shaped card by using the die to creat it out of pale yellow card.
I lined the white background inside with pale yellow paper to match.
Then I cut out the lovely lace die in white.
This die is a Tatered Lace Die I bought some time ago and hadn't used it till now.
The Daffs are a Carnation Crafts Die and I decoupaged them and brushed Glossy Accents over them to make them shine and harden them.
The Swag Die is also a Carnation Crafts Die which I cut about to make the arch shape, and put gems in the centre of the little flowers.
Finished off with a organza bow.

Please pop over to the challenge blog to take a look at my team mates creations.

Thank you so much for your visit and precious time.
I really appreciate every visit and wonderful comment made.
Lots of crafty love.  JENNY.
