CR84FN #55

 Morning all, today brings us a new challenge over at CR84FN. This fortnight, we have one of my favourite colour combos - Lavender, Celery and Grey.


I have made a card using a variety of stamp sets from different companies.



I stamped the flowers and stems using Papertrey Ink's Botanical Silhouettes, and added the little butterflies from Flourishes Gerbera Daisies set, and added the little tags from Waltzingmouse Stamps Afternoon Tea set.



I stitched some co-ordinating paper from Wild Rose Studios Floral stack onto some Certainly Celery card from Stampin' Up, then cut another piece of the card and used a Martha Stewart branch punch along two edges.


I stitched a border around this in grey thread, then added some grey silky ribbon.
Finally I added some tiny metallic gems, and the little tags with some purp[le button twine from The Ribbon reel shop.

Please visit the rest of the CR84FN Design Team for some more beautiful inspiration:
