Doily Flower Card




Hello there my Blogging friends, where does time fly to, I can't believe we have almost been home a week from our break in Majorca, but the good news is I think we brought the sunshine home with us as it has been the most beautiful week here in Scotland. 
Yesterday I went around our local Garden Centre with my Mum and at this time of year it's full of so much inspiration seeing all the gorgeous flowers in full bloom. I am still playing catch up trying to visit everyone's blog so please bear with me.  
This week for my DT post at Cheery Lynn Designs is a card for a Birthday which would be suitable for a variety of occasions by simply changing the wording with Cheery Lynn word dies.


My flowers were cut out using white cardstock and inked to shade them. I layered various leaves and my tiny flourishes to form an arrangement on my card. My doily I also inked and added the Angel wing die offset to the back of the doily to make everything POP. You will see my Border strip was also inked in two shades and matches my Doily.

Hope you all have a beautiful sunny weekend wherever you may be. Thanks to everyone who left comments on my last card while I was on Holiday, much appreciated.

    You are also on holiday julie, to sunny Majorca, i hope you enjoy your vacation. We are been to Sweden, so also ran behind with blogging, but becoming again along with everyone! Your flowers are wonderful homemade and Yes you get inspiration at a garden center, there is an abundance of flowers! It is a beautifull card and I wish you have a nice Sunday in Holland the Sun is shining and i hope with you to.
    greetings Gerie
