My card for today follows the theme over at the CD Sunday Challenge and the fab sketch over at Willow Sketchie Challenge:
This lovely image is from Joanna Sheen's Enchanted Dreams cd-rom. This just happens to be my star sign, and I love this image and the gorgeous colours. I printed the image onto glossy photo paper. The backing paper, also from the cd-rom, is printed onto a pearlescent paper for a softer look. The other panel is core'dinations card, embossed using Divine Swirls embossing folder and then sanded slightly. The ribbon border is 2 different widths of organza ribbon gathered. I decided to try my hand at making flowers from the ribbon, and am quite pleased with how they've turned out. I then threaded a hat pin with some co-ordinating beads which I added to the flowers.
My card is also for the following challenges:
Crafts and Me Challenge - Use pins
PaperPlay Challenges - Ribbon every which way
TotallyPaperCrafts Challenge - Make your own flowers
Allsorts Challenge - Needles and pins
