Shades of Lilac

Good Afternoon all
I wanted to show you this before we go out to the quiz tonight.  I finished it this afternoon and I am quite proud of it.



It is made from different shades of lilac card and a little bit of pink.  I attached lace to edges before I stuck to the fronts and then went to town with embellishments of gems, hand made flowers, flourishes and pearls etc etc etc.  This doily is from a pack I bought in local Chinese bazaar shop for -----------50cents for 50, can you believe that?  No wonder cafes put your biccys on one each time you have tea or coffee.
