What a surprise when I was a January 2014 Spotlight Winner for Crafting by Designs and got invited by the lovely Doris to be a guest designer for them. Their current challenge is ANYTHING GOES.
I used these wonderful vintage images from Nicecrane Designs which are both in the Flower Children Pack 1 which can be purchased here.
So with no further ado, here is my creation with no surprises at all, its another centre step card. The sentiment is from Create with TLC. The image and sentiment were coloured with Copics and dry chalks. The flower embellishments were created with various punches. The design paper, brads and jewel stones are from my stash.
So hop on over to CRAFTING BY DESIGNS and have a look at me featuring as guest designer as well as their Design Team's gorgeous creations, and oh yes, don't forget to enter the challenge.

Great card featuring the flower children and isn't that the perfect sentiment? Great colors too. Nina is too cute!
ReplyDeleteAnother beautiful baby pic Desire - and another terrific card!
ReplyDeleteGood Morning! Well, it is probably afternoon for you by now. How sweeeeet those little flower children are, Desire! Love all the happiness felt in your card, and the pretty shading in their blessed little blossom heads LOL. Once again, I am enamored by the cute floral elements - leaves and flowers together. You must have so much fun creating the unusual and knowing that no one else will have embellishments like yours. It's always a pleasure visiting your blog to see what you're up to, to be inspired, and see the personal photos, too. Thanks for taking multiple photos of your own card so all the details can be seen! hugs, de
