Good Morning Bloggers !!!! As it’s the 20th of the month its time for our card challenge over at Get Creative and we where given a wonderful sketch to work with. Now I hope you can all bear with me on this one and ignore any grammatical and spelling mistakes in this post as I seem to have mis- placed my glasses ! We had a little party here last night until the small hours and on arising rather late I may add it seems they have disappeared !! Even the spare pair have legged it !!! So am definitely suffering from bloggers blindness and coupled with well shall we say with a little over indulgment it all adds up to a bit of a pigs ear in the blogging department. Dont you just hate spell check !!! too many choices and none of them I can see properly so sorry !.
I used some of my new stash from Aintree finally !! I emossed the background with a lovely new folder from Sizzix ( sorry box in the bin !! ) The stamp is from the vintage oval labels set by Just Rite and used the coordinating Spellbinders die to cut the aperture. A second Just Rite stamp for the sentiment also with a Spellbinders label die. I used SU Rich Razzlebury and Marina Mist inks. For the flowers ( well they where flowers to begin with ) I cut up some Sfragidomania chipboard inked it in Rich Razzlebury and the double embossed it with UTEE. Added some over -sized pearls to the centre and some ribbon from my stash.
Here is the gorgeous sketch we had been given to inspire us and hopefully you !

My endless shopping list just got ‘bigger’…. I adore that embossed panel, in fact the whole card is fabulous! Hope you found your glasses…
such an elegant card.
Beautiful. Very sophisticated card, Marie!
A gorgeous use of dry embossing and die cuts—and the ribbon is a fabulous touch with all the bits of bling! LOVE this, Marie!!! 🙂
Fabulous card, I love the Rich Razzlebury colour, one of those that I don’t like to use, cos I like it so much, it makes a really lovely contrast to the blue, love the embossing folder. Sounds like you had a good night.
