The CD Sunday Challenge - Swirls and Pearls

Sorry I've not been around much this week, I've had a really bad week health-wise.

Here is my card for the CD Sunday Challenge which has the theme of Swirls and Pearls:

6 x 6 card blank.

Sheena Douglass Pain Fusion cd-rom, main image printed onto watercolour card.

I printed off a different backing paper onto each side of some textured paper and cut it to make the frame.

Black sparkly pearls were added along with Memory box Macarena corners.

My card is also for the following challenges:

Make It Monday - Anything Goes

Divas By Design - Anything Goes

J & C Creations Challenge - Anything Goes

Sweet Peas For Mum

Good Morning

My card for today is the Mothers' Day card I've made for my mum.  Mum loves Sweet Peas, and my dad has always grown them, but she can't have them in the house because of their scent.  When I saw these Sweet Peas I thought they would be perfect.

I printed 2 of the backing papers from Sheena Douglass' paint fusion cd-rom onto card.  I added to this silver linen card and Centura pearl, and created the book using the new Once Upon A Time embossing board from the Glitter Girls.  I printed a ribbon from the cd to put down the centre of the book and added some gems.  I printed out 3 toppers onto which I stamped 'MUM' using my Dimension Fourth alphabet stamps and then triple embossed the letters before adding them to the card.  I printed the sweet pea decoupage from the cd-rom, and added this to the front.

I made a card stand using Centura Pearl card and, finally, a box for the card to be sent in.

My card is for the following challenges:

ABC Challenge - Jazz It Up

Crafts and Me Challenge - Shades of Spring

Divas By Design - Bling It Up

Paint Fusion Sweet Peas

Hello

As soon as I saw the sweet pea decoupage on Sheena Douglass' new Paint Fusion cd-rom it was sold to me.  Here is my first card using this gorgeous image.

The base card is also printed from the cd-rom.  Using a glitter girls board to produce a frame, I embossed the base cardstock, and then some co-ordinating cardstock, to which I added border peel offs.  The butterfly is also printed from the cd-rom.  I printed it onto cardstock and then triple embossed it.

My card is for the following challenges:
