First DT Post For Creative Crafters Challenge

Hi there

Well I have some good news today, this is my first posting as a new DT member of  Creative Crafters Challenge blog. I am so thrilled to be part of a lovely team and look forward to sharing more crafty inspiration with you. Our challenge runs from today the 15th July until the 8th August and the theme is always 'Anything Goes'.
So without further ado, here is my first project...


Here I have created an ephemera style card. To do this, I matt & layered pink linen card on to a 5x7 kraft card, also adding a panel of layered various card/paper as well as more kraft card that I embossed and tore to create shape, a paper doily and a lace velvet ribbon border. To this, I added a shaby chic 3d topper and 3 paper buttons, not to forget the ephemera ticket and postcard too. I finished off with some sparkle flowers and die cut foliage.

Materials Used 
Hunkydory - Moonstone 'Lovely Leaves' Dies
Crafter's Companion - 'Delicate Floral' A4 Embossing Folder
Studio Light - 'Tres Chic' 3d Topper and Specials
Ranger - 'Tea Dye' Distress Ink
