A SPOON FULL OF SUGAR CHALLENGE NO. 53


Good morning everyone, what a gorgeous day! Lovely and sunny, that's put me in a good mood already! I have two posts today, and my first card is for A Spoon Full of Sugar Challenge No. 53 - Lace. I have used a new The Greeting Farm stamp from the Collection called Hope and Grace, not sure which one is which, and she has been coloured with Sukura Gel Pens. I just love these pens because they give such a lovely shimmer to the image when it's coloured. The photos really don't do the pens any justice at all, but really effective when you see them in real life. I have cut all around the image, and layered her on pink, green and pale yellow card which has been cut with Oval nesties. The backing papers are from a Basic Grey paper pad called Gypsy. I did not have genuine lace, but have used some paper lace instead. The card has been finished off with a paper flower and gem brad, from my craft stash.
