A Double-Doily Card!



Hi!
I know I'm last minute with my entry for the Doily challenge at Moxie Fab World's  Card Creations Inspiration weeks but I had to finish the crocheted doily first and somehow time really seems to fly now. The end of term is always extra busy at work )-:
Anyway, here it is. I used Hero Arts stamp Flower Dot bg (Super pretty bg stamp that looks just like small doilies too!) for the pink bg and embossed my white cardstock with PTI text embossing plates. I used colors from A blog Named Hero Kraft, Pink and white a Lifestyle crafts die for the flower and added a button and bow for the challenge at Crafty Catz. I'm also entering this card for the Anything Goes challenge at Simon Says stamp and for the favorite embellishment challenge at Let's ink it up.
My favorite embellishments, if I go through my blog posts, are quite clearly homemade fabric flowers - I didn't think I was a very "flowery" crafter but I seem to use them all the time...



Have a wonderful day, hugs, Karin

I knew you did needlework (is that the right word?), but I couldn't remember if I'd seen any of your pieces on the blog. Your doily is just exquisite! I can't imagine the skill that goes into creating something like that! Beautiful!
