A Little Bit Different!

Hello peeps,
Thanks so much for all your get well wishes, I am beginning to feel better thankfully, I could sleep for England at the moment though, I've lost count of the times I've nodded off with my laptop on my lap and it's switched itself into sleep mode, it must get bored of me not typing anything lol.

Today I have a card to share that I made last weekend but didn't get around to blogging before. It's another of those cards that worry me as it's commissioned and as usual I worry the lady who ordered it may not like it. She didn't mind what colours, image etc she just wanted a non cute personalised wedding card, and here's what I came up with

Ingredients -
Paper - Stemma
Pearls - Blue Moon
Roses - Wild Orchid
Ribbons & Charm - stash
Sentiment - computer generated


Are you shocked there's no stamping anywhere, so not like me lol. I've added some tiny clear gems in the centre of the roses and added diamond stickles to the edges of the petals 


I'm entering my card in the following challenges -
Pixie Dust - say it out loud, Aud's Sentiments - anything goes, Ladybug Crafts - celebration, Papertake - truly dimensional, Anything goes - pearls, Lexi's Creations - monochrome, One Stop Craft - monochrome, CES - monochromatic, Sentimental Sundays - treasured memories, Polka Doodles - wedding



Tomorrow I will have a special guest designer taking centre stage on my blog as we are going live with another surprise challenge at
Please pop over tomorrow and say hello to my lovely guest designer and find out what our special challenge is!
Thanks for stopping by
