Double D Challenge Lavender and Lace

New challenge starts today at
Double D and the theme is 
Lavender and Lace
and using the  gorgeous mood board below!
You should see the beautiful creations the 
Design team has....WOW...you must head over there and take a peek!!



For my card, I used a very  new die just recently released from
Elizabeth Craft dies 'Gatefold-Elegant Roses'



I made this card in no time at all....
the die cut like a dream
and it makes a pretty large card.

I basically used a lavender card stock for the base and a pretty
piece of lavender floral designer paper for the background.

The die has a little hole on each die cut piece to run a ribbon through
to tie shut.



I glued a flower on the ribbon,
 but need to rethink that as now it won't untie...lol.
I think next time I will make some kind of a pullout sentiment so
the bow can be permanently tied shut.
When I have more time I intend to play around with this die
a bit more, but isn't it beautiful, so delicate!

So, head on over to Double D
see all the 'pretties' there and join in with us,
we always have a fabulous prize to give away! 

Entering the following challenges:
Scrapy Land .... ATG with Die
DL.Art February Linky Challenge.... ATG

  3. This is beautiful I love that die cut fold! Perfect colors too of course! I think I would just send it with a frame, maybe add a panel on the back (think top fold) and write the message there, tell them it's only for show. Even that ribbon is gorgeous! VERY pretty!
