can you smell the flowers? - Bunny Zoe's Crafts monthly challenge - My Choice - Lace

Good morning, did you enjoy your day off from me yesterday I bet some of you hadn't even realised I was away lol...well I'm starting my second weeks holiday today and am hopefully going a setting 2 on the toaster brown because I always use factor 25+ as I don't want the old skin looking like leather, nothing less attractive on a woman of a certain age is there, I think I will defo aim for golden brown rather than ikea leather sofa brown...my card for today is for our brand new challenge at Bunny Zoe's Crafts monthly challenge and this month its my choice and I chose lace, so any type of lace you want, paper, real lace, dies whatever you fancy as long as its lacy...I chose this beautiful CC Designs Swiss pixies Bouquet Birgitta and coloured her with distress inks...the lush papers are a mix of Kaisercraft Seaside 6x6 pad (beige) and Crate Paper Emma's shoppe (the rose one)...the lush lace is a brown elasticated one from Prima, the sentiment is from Whimsy stamps and the flowers are from Prima...I hope your going to have a go this month and I cant wait to see what you come up with...have a wonderful day everyone and when you have time dont forget to pop on over to Bunny Zoe's challenge and see what the rest of the team came up with
