Mr Blogger has been naughty....

Evening Everyone,
I've been trying to get Mr Blogger to play all of today everytime I tried to post my card he said error 503 service unavailable,I gave him a good talking to about 30 minutes ago and he's decided to play ( hope I make it to the end od the post)...Katy went back to school yesterday so I had the day to myself and I caught up on my DT cards and managed to make this card for  the following challenges......

Simon Says Challenge - Pearls and Lace...
Cute Card Thursday - Material...
Just Magnolia - Anything Goes.....

And here's my card......I hadn't made an easel card for a while so decided to make one......


I have used Spanish Tilda coloured with my polychromos pencils and blended with sansador......The red gingham paper was a gift from a friend and the black card was from my stash it's actually glossy but doesn't show up well in the pic.....



The lace border was punched with my MS punch......The sentiment is from an Invoke Art set......
The flowers are all from Mulberry Crafts and I have sprayed them with glimmer mist and sprinkled some glamour dust on to them.....


The little pearls are from my stash and the pearls in amongst the flowers and the black lacey narrow ribbon are from Bee Crafty....Hope your all having a fab weekend I'm off now to try to do some comments and then watch X Factor I'm due for a good laugh...Got a busy day tomorrow as I've got 10 for lunch I'll try to pop some pics on of my desserts I'm going to make...Take care....
