Flower Power

Good morning to you all!  I am scheduling this because I am off to Manchester for the day shopping with my friend.  We are taking the train because we are going to the Champagne Bar at Harvey Nicks!!! Oh dear shopping and alcohol do not mix - goodness knows what I will come home with lol!

Today sees the start of a brand new challenge at The Paper Shelter and the theme this week is Flower Power.  Here is my card:


I have used the gorgeous The Florist  available here.  The papers are Nitwits "Always Forever" and she has been coloured with Copics.  I use a MS Punch for the border.  The flower is Dienamics Plentiful Petals and I have put a Kay and Co Grand Adhesions flower in the centre.  Whimsy corner die in the corner and the sentiment is Craftwork Cards.

As usual, we have a fabulous prize up for the lucky winner:


Please go over to the challenge and see what beautiful creations the team have made!

Thank you so much for calling by - I always enjoy our visits!  See you tomorrow, take care xx
