This is my entry for the 100th
LOTV challenge -anything goes I know I can't win a prize 'cos we're sponsoring this week :) lol but I just wanted to enter a card in their 100th challenge). I used one of my new die-cuts (I don't think the actual rubber stamp is available yet from LOTV) and teamed it with green backing paper and a strip of 30mm cotton lace from
here. I added a happy birthday sentiment which I stamped, handcut then mounted onto red backing paper, then hand cut again.
I added 25mm Berisford red gingham and a large mushroom charm (both from
here)
I didn't have a suitable flower so I punched two with a flower punch then added 7 sparklies to make a centre and some green leaves - quite effective I think. I really enjoyed making this card and I love using red and white.

hmmm ... "I didn't have a suitable flower" I think you need to rephrase this young lady after the hour we just spent sorting out all of your flowers ;)
sorry dear daughter - thank you for helping me sort out the flowers - it only took a couple of hours and we now have 2 drawers full of lovely flowers, all sorted into colours, styles and sizes, a bag full we don't want, and a bin full of stuff we decided to part with!! Mam
so so beautiful! This is another stamp I have just bought and can't wait to use her.
I just adore your little toadstall charm! I so NEEED those!! lol
I've such a soft spot for gingham and this card really hits the spot!!
I love the mushroom charm and the clean layout of the card!!
xo, Lou.
