Okay, today's card. Seen Joanna Sheens challenge was Lavender and Lace. Now I never was much of a Purple person, wasn't my favourite colour to use and didn't own much stash of it but recently I have made quite a few cards and bought stash to hoard lol! Wanted to have a practise at colouring flowers and loved the thought of a Lavender and Lace creation.
Made an Easel card as I didn't want to clutter up the main topper.
Used Iced Diamond card from the Papeterie, Stamped with TH Lavander and embossed Hero Arts swirls background stamp. Inked edges and distressed with TH distressing thingymijig. Doily by Cheerylyn
The Butterflies from Hero Arts Engravings, coloured with Pro markers,Pearls from Hobbyhouse
