Truly Scrumptious Challenge ....

Morning,
Well yesterday didn't quite go to plan,my Mum was taken ill during the night so a trip to the Doc's revealed she has Bronchitis and her hip is giving her a bit more pain so antibiotics and  stronger pain killers to sort it all out...I had so many plans,lets hope today goes better.....I have got something to show you as it's time for our new challenge over at Truly Scrumptious,I'm hosting this one and have a.....

BINGO THEME......Please check the Challenge blog for the grid



Paper Take Weekly - Anything Goes (+ a bit of bling if you like)
Make it Monday - Anything Goes
Sweet Stampin - must Stamp - Anything goes

I chose to use the line Lace,Ribbon and Flowers....I've used a cute image from Hanglar Stanglar this time coloured with Polychromos pencils blended with sansodor and her wings have had the glamour dust treatment.....The papers are all Echo Park called Life is Good...The card is from my stash......


All of the flowers are from Mulberry Crafts.......I've used my Marianne die elegant flourish for the leaves behind..... The lace and ribbon I have had in my stash for ages got them from somewhere on my holidays I think.....The buckle again from my stash.....The sentiment is from a Whimsy set and stamped onto kraft card....Please checkout the rest of the teams gorgeous cards and join in with us....
