Ooooohhhh I bought a huge new paper pad - Truly Scrumptious Challenge 35 - Sketch plus Strawberries and cream

Good morning everyone and ooooohhhhh I bought a huge new paper pad from K&Co and it is so lush, full of brightly coloured acetates, cut out flowers and sentiments, kraft paper frames and backgrounds, its by K&Co and is called Cara Marie I bought it from a local shop called Craft Corner, so I'm sorry to tell you but you will be seeing loads of it lol...including for today's card for our new challenge over at Truly Scrumptious which is a fabulous sketch from Sharon with the added option of Strawberries and Cream...I knew as soon as I saw this red striped acetate I would use it for this challenge, its so shiny and sheer...the photos really don't do it justice, the other paper is a small scrap from a Cosmo Cricket Christmas paper I think, the stunning little girl in her Mums hat and shoes is of course by Lili of the Valley and I coloured her with Distress inks...I used a fantastic velvet flower from Prima and some cream ribbon and a heart charm to finish...I hope you like it and when you have time hop on over to Truly Scrumptious and have a look at our amazing teams wonderful creations...by the way have you seen the new ad for Flake, I could watch that dress swirl around in the wind for hours, so hypnotising and relaxing, if you haven't seen it its here have a look and I bet you love it

  12. Such a wonderful card Mina and what a fabulous colour palette!
    You seem to have a bit of a 'thing' for reds at the moment and they look gorgeous (especially when teamed with that 'kraft' colour)
