Flowers and Frills ...

Good morning ...
I am hosting the challenge at City Crafter Challenge Blog this week and the theme is Flower and Frills ... make a card or project using flower(s) and either some lace or a doily ...



Our current swap on City Crafter Party Blog is for lace and doilies ... so I thought it would be good to go with this theme ... 
Our Guest Designer this week is Karli ... please pop over and say hello and check out her lovely card too... along with the rest of the DT ... they have done some lovely cards to give you inspiration ...



I used some Basic Grey paper that I have had for ages ... I love this range (Scarlet's Letter) and bought lots of it at the time .... The flower is actually from a necklace and the rest is from my stash ... the little bird is made from wood and covered in material (from the Hobby Shop) which matches my ribbon ...
I hope you will join our challenge this week and look forward to seeing you ...
Have a lovely day

Ros

As always; fabulous. I would never have thought to combine green and red in this way but I love it. I love the soft colors of your card and that beautiful flower. The red ribbon and birdie are perfect!
