Hooked On Crafts Challenge 8.....

Morning,
I'm so sorry this post is late it was scheduled for last night but when I checked  this morning it hadn't posted,I still don't understand why I do the same thing every time and sometimes it doesn't post,but anyway here it is now,one good thing I've had a chance to enter some challenges....

It's time for another challenge over at Hooked on Craft and for this one we have the theme of......

RIBBON & LACE......

For my card I've used such a sweet little elephant image from Hooked on Craft coloured with polychromos pencils blended with sansodor.....I've then used my nesties to cut it out and layered onto another pink layer...


Challenges I would like to enter......

Corrosive Challenges - (1st week) Punches and/or Dies
The Squirrel & the Fox - 2E, 2W - Anything Goes

The papers are from First edition called Love Letters...All the card is from my stash......I've used my MS doily lace punch to make the borders.......The ribbon is the lovely Bud and Bow again from Hooked on Crafts........


All the flowers and the sweet little charm are also from Hooked on Crafts......The sentiment I have stamped onto Kraft card and is from Cats Life Press.....Please checkout the rest of the teams fabulous cards and join in with us.....
