2nd Post ... CR84FN Challenge




Hello ... this is my second posting today so if you are looking for my City Crafter Challenge post ... please scroll down ...


This post is for my entry to this weeks challenge at CR84FN Color challenge ... such a beautiful colour palette ... soft, warm and serene ...


... and what beautiful photographs ...




I used my distressing tool on this ... first time I have done so 
the flower I made from sequinned fabric and the gorgeous centre and pink ribbon is from the October kit at Pixie Dust Paperie




The hessian 'lace' I got in a sale at a craft shop ... along with a pad of the lilac/lavender papers ... those glittered little dragon flies I've had for a while just waiting to be set free ... 


Till soon

This is oh so pretty, Ros! I love the pinks and purples, the lace and the ribbon. I got your card yesterday, Thanks you it is beautiful!
I made doll clothes, too. We would have been great friends growing up, we could have shared those lovely scraps. My grandmother had a huge walk-in closet full of scraps which we could rummage through and take what we wanted. It was like being in a candy store! She made quilts!
