Great Holiday/D&D Challenge Blog

OMG What a stressful couple of days.... Had a fantastic week with my Mum only to pack up the car & drive half an hour up the road & the Cam Belt went on the car sob sob!!! Now for those of you that don't know, we own a 1984 Mk3 Escort thats hubby's restoration project. Now when a cam belt goes on a car it is extremely rare for an engine to survive. Well miraculously for us ours did....just. So we were towed back to Mum's & a few hours of hubby clanging & banging the car was fixed enough for us to crawl 340 miles back home.... 24 hours later than planned.
Now onto my second week as GD over at Daisy & Dandelion Challenge Blog. This weeks challenge is to create a card with the theme "With Love". I had a firm idea of what I wanted to do for this card & it came out completely different & I love it....
The background paper is from Papermania Simply Elegant. The daisy ribbon is also from Papermania. I created the pearlescent background from an ornaré pattern I had in my drawer. I added black & crystal gems to alternate segments on the ornaré. The bunny is my diecut decoupage Candyfloss. The flower is created using a mixture of Prima, Papermania & a Jewelled brad from Dovecraft. The With Love is made using gold peel offs on a brown tag.
I will add the inside of the card this afternoon once I have unpacked all my crafting things.

A bit later than planned but here is the inside of my card. I have taken the simply elegant paper through from the front of the card. I have cut a rectangle of the pearlescent paper & cut & embossed the corners with my Fiskars corner punch.

Don't forget to check out the cards from my fellow GD & DT members. xx
