Flowers, Ribbon and Lace with the Secret Crafter Design Team

Good morning to you all in the land of blog
and welcome to the weekend, hope you all have something fabulous planned, myself, well must really get my Christmas list written and purchase remaining presents for those on the list, and actually record those I have bought so far.  This means that in years to come I will not buy the same presents for the same person.  Also just found out how many double up points I have for Tesco OMG!!!!! off to convert and purchase :) I sort of forget them and what a surprise when I remember, so must spend these too, so going to have a fantastic spending weekend, as the first stop is Grimsby Crafts to by some new candy for the 600 follower mark. Then I am off to cuddle a little new baby and then food shopping, before crafting :)

oh sorry I am waffling on again, so why am I here, well today sees the next challenge at the


the very talented Francesca has chosen the theme and she has chosen

Flowers, Ribbon and Lace

Loved this theme, I am sure you will too..... To follow is my design team inspirational piece, but do not forget to hop on over to see the rest of the gorgeous inspiration.
I made this card for Matt's mum, I know what you are thinking but it really does suit her and she loved it.  The base colour and contrast here is black, with Papermania Capsule Mono collection papers.  the lace is from Grimsby Crafts, the ribbon is from stash.  The MS heart punch has been used and overlapped and diamanté black gems along with little pearls above the little heart border.  Sentiments are from My Sentiments Exactly and the flowers originally white have been airbrushed and in the main these are from Wild Orchid with added stickles
The image plate has been airbrushed in Y15 and the image coloured copics with groovy hair. What a rock chick!!!!!!

I would like to say thank you to all my followers old and new for all the lovely comments you leave me which allows me to hop over and visit you, THANK YOU.
