Crafty catz Challenge ATG optional extra Add flowers

Hello and welcome to my Crafty place.

Today i am here to share this weeks Challenge at CRAFTY CATZ

our host is the lovely Janette who has been on extended leave but is back and in full swing again.

Now our challenge is always ANYTHING GOES so no excuses not to play along but our host picks a little twist just for fun for us Dt and those that would like to play along with it.

Our fabulous sponsor for this challenge is

All Dressed Up

So the lucky DT got to play with some of their images and i went for this cutie called

My Little Flower Girl coloured with Promarkers

I have gone with just shades of white the white base card then i used some white pearlised card for the trellis which is a spellbinders die

added flowers with a memory box die in the same card as the base card. fussy cut my image mounting behind the sentiment with is from Lillet a tale of friendship stamp set.

Added some satin ribbon in same colours as the dress to bring it all together and a white satin ribbon rose to finish.

Well thats my make and am fairly pleased how it came out as i had it coloured up and then mojo disappeared so it sat on my desk for 3 days looking at me.

Now pop over and  checkout the teams makes and also what a fabulous card our new GDT has made for us. I do love it.

Well have a fabulous Bank Holiday i believe the weather is warming up so that will be good.

Bye for now.
