Double D Challenge

Hello and Good Morning!

Today is the start of a new challenge over at  



 Diane's team are hosting and the theme is Mother's Day / Happy Birthday


Here's the beautiful inspiration board


Mother's day in the UK has already passed and I no longer have my Mum so I made a birthday card for a friend - Inspired by those beautiful tulips


I stamped and hand cut the tulip heads, coloured them with Copics and smothered them in glossy accents... cut strips for stems and then coloured them too

 
 The little white stems were cut on my Cameo and I made a little bouquet to frame.


My friend loves red so this is perfect for her...

We have such a talented group of designers at Double D so please hop on over to see what they have created and link up with us for a chance to win another lovely gift.

I'm away on vacation so I am taking a blog break until next week... 

Thanks so much for your visit and take care

Hugs

Oh, I just love how the red pops against your field of white! And the dimension here is fantastic, girl! Way to layer without bulking it up!
