Gracie's card

Good morning - I'm late today! Sorry about that! A combination of a power cut yesterday and a guiding meeting last night! Keeps life interesting doesn't it! I hope you are all fit and well and thanks for popping by!

Today I've got a card to share with you that I have made for my friend Michelle's daughter Gracie who will be three at the weekend. She's just started 'tutu time' at the ballet classes that my girls go to - so I had to choose this image from LOTV:


I've coloured the image using promarkers and cut her out and mounted her onto a mat cut using a spellbinders die. The flowers on the left were made using spellspinders bitty blosson dies and the one on the right is a WOC flower. The layout is a sketch from Willow sketchie.

I'd like to enter my card into the following challenges:

anythingchallenge: Make your own embellishments (flowers)
TSBthestampingboutiquechallengeblog: Black and white and pink
inthepinkchallenge: Buttons and bows
Lili's little fairiesliliofthevalleythursdaychallenge: Anything goes
thepoodlesparlour: Anything goes
fussyandfancychallenge Anything goes
Willow sketchiewillowsketchiechallenge: Sketch

That's it for today - thanks for dropping by and I will get up to speed with commenting shortly! Jobs need to be done first! Hugs Rachel xxx

    What a stunning card. So lovely design. I like the colors you have used and that image is so beautiful. Also love the CAS style design like Plastic cards, which make the card POP. Thanks for sharing.
