#17 at The Pink Elephant

Happy Monday Morning to you all..............can you believe we are at challenge #17 already!!! over at The Pink Elephant

Today from Ella's kitchen we have a Recipe .......................
3 Buttons, 2 Layers, and 1 Sentiment


Very, very simple card for you today..........Thankfully, i do not have cause to make Sympathy cards very often, however i thought it may be useful to have one in my 'stock box'........i guess most of you fellow card makers have one of those too!

My card literally is two layers.......the front of the card has been Cuttlebugged with the Stylised Flowers, then a fine slice was made down the fold to allow the lace to pass through and tie over the buckle at the front. The sentiment is a white rub-on, placed on to white card, i then coloured over it with Versamagic 'Niagra Mist' in a similar manner as you would do for Versamark resist.

Ink.... Versamagic 'Niagra Mist'
Cuttlebug & 'Stylised Flowers'
Buttons, Lace & Buckle from stash

We are all thrilled that so many of you love to join in with our challenges each week, and personally i do love visiting you all to see what you have created ............my children often say to me "Mum, you're so nosey".........................and yes, i really am!! ;-D

Hugs
