the Lush pink velvet paper - Truly Scrumptious challenge #46-Sketch+Think Pink + A Spoon Full of Sugar-anything goes

Good morning everyone, well the wallpapering at my Dads is going well and another day should do it, I had a lovely surprise yesterday as my Sister and my super gorgeous cutie Niece arrived at my Dads to help, it was fantastic to see them and my niece just gets cuter every time I see her, shes at that age when she has to be into everything, but I managed to distract her by asking her to help paste the walls for wallpapering until I realised she was pasting the surface of the newly hung wallpaper instead, so the Tellytubbys went on instead lol...my card for today is for our new challenge at Truly Scrumptious and the sketch is one of those fantastic simple ones that you can fluff up if you want to and there's an added option of Think Pink too, I used the fantastic Mo's Digital Pencil image (don't forget we have a DT call on for the Dreamteam too) Alice with present, just perfect for anything occasion, I coloured her with Distress inks and now onto these amazingly stunning papers, the photos really don't do them Justice, they are from My Minds Eye Lush collection, the brocade one is velvet and really rich feeling and is called Pink Damask paper and the spotted one is from the same range and is double sided and called Pink Floral paper...aren't they so gorgeous...I finished my card with a couple of satin bows and pearls and a tag...when you have time hop on over to Truly Scrumptious and check out the amazing work by the rest of the DT...I'm entering this for the Spoon Full of Sugar anything goes challenge too...well fingers crossed this is the last wallpapering day so wish me luck and have a fantastic day everyone
