Crafty Ann´s Challenge Blog

The challenge this time is for "Let The Sunshine In" with a fairly wide remit...........whatever this means to you, summer, sunshine etc.

For me, sunshine brings flowers, and when I lived in the UK my favourite summer flowers were roses.not very original, but then that´s me. LOL

So, here is my card, replete with roses:-




And here are the details:-
White linen cardstock, embossed with a Cuttlebug border embossing folder.
Backing paper - Cuddly Buddly
White mat - embossed using Cuttlebug Stylized Flowers folder, and with corners cut with corner punch in stash.
Image by Crafty Anne, coloured with Promarkers, and set on twin Nestabilities Ovals.
Paper roses to finish off- from stash.

A stunning card Jackie and your colouring of Ann's roses is wonderful. Your paper flowers are the perfect finishing touch for this.
Thanks for joining in with Crafty Ann's challenge.

If it's any consolation Jackie, I'm not very original either because I love roses too - especially if they're scented! The sun brings out the scent beautifully so this card is perfect for our challenge this time - thank you so much for sharing it with us.
