I have some really exciting news which I have been wanting to share for quite a while but only got the confirmation a couple of weeks ago. We have been invited to a Garden Party at Buckingham Palace (well, Adam has and I am his guest). I am so excited and this was the reason I had to go dress shopping last week. Well I am happy to say that I have the dress, shoes, bag and a substantial Fascinator (hope its not too windy on the day) and I promise to blog more about it later.
And so onto crafting. Here is another gorjuss girl card, it's actually one of the last decoupage images I have from the two kits I purchased a while back. I am really pleased with how far the kits have stretched but I don't think I will buy anymore. I much prefer stamping /colouring my own images:
The background is a wallpaper sample I have had for years and could not bring myself to throw it away. The flower is cut out on the Cameo and I added Candi to the centre of the flower and down the edge of the card. I used the beige / cream colour scheme as these are the favourite colours of the person it is being sent to.
I hope you all have a lovely weekend but for now there is a glass of wine with my name on it so see you all later xx
