Vix's Nan's Birthday

Had enough of this sunshine yet, I can take it in small doses so popped in for an hour or so to make this card for Vix's Nan. It is her 90th birthday soon and Vix is trying to get 90 cards for her. So if you feel like doing a RAK you can find Vix's blog here. 


I have used this cute little Sugar Nellie stamp by Leanne Ellis 'Blossom' and coloured with Promarkers.  I have paper pieced the flowers.  The papers used are Stamping Up.  Martha Stewart Doily Lace punch.  Punched flowers.  Sentiment is See D.  Gems and pearls from stash.

Promarker colours used.
Skin:  Ivory, blush and dusky pink.
Hair:  Buttercup, Tulip Yellow and Pastel Yellow
Dress:  Orchid, Lilac, Lavendar, Pink Carnation and Blossom
Tights: Amethyst and Leaf Green.
Boots:  Apricot.

Challenges I am entering with this card:
Totally Gorjuss - Bling it On
One Stop Craft Challenge - Birthstones (June's birthstone is Pearl)
I love Promarkers - Make Your Own Flowers

Phew that was a long post, right off back out in the sunshine now, see how long I can last this time!!
