Just A Note...........

It's been a few weeks since I've made a card - hence why I haven't updated the ol' blog!  Things have been really busy, and added to that we have school holidays happening here as well - not enough hours in my day I'm afraid! lol

Anyhoooooooo, I wanted to make something really pretty today.......not for any particular reason........just because I could! lol


I chose a nice soft pallet to work with, and I think over all it turned out quite nicely!  
This card would be lovely done in a few different colour schemes just to have on hand for occassions that pop up unexpectedly don't you think?  Maybe I need to put that idea into action! lol

Have a great day and WELCOME to my new followers.  I noticed I had a few newbies......no prizes for guessing how you found me! lol  Thanks for the support - much appreciated!!

Your cards are just amazing Karen. Fantastic inspiration! I shall definitely be keeping up with your blog, so much fab eye candy.
I really hope you get the apology you deserve from the powers that be at PTI. It is the very least you are owed.
But in the grand scheme of things, it's ultimately their loss!

This is really lovely Karen! I really love how you layered the lace over the Kraft, and how that stunning flowers echoes the shapes in the DSP.
