In the Blue

Good Afternoon All
 We have been painting and it is crippling my back so I have surrendered and got an estimate from a decorator to do my craft room for me instead of doing it ourselves - 60 euros so well worth it.  It will probably take us another week to finish the upstairs room we have started as we have t do so many coats as it was once an outside wall that has been glassed in, so it has a very rough texture.

I decided to show you this card today.  I made it a couple of weeks ago and the sentiment is from a pack that has been in my stash forever, I cant even remember where I bought it from.
The turquoise backing paper  (which has glitter on it)  and the wire flower is from some stuff given to me, as is the shiny paper that I have made the bitty blossom flowers from.  Narrow satin ribbon and a homemade bead pin complete it, oh, I forgot the gorgeous corner cut from waste card and  gems in each of  the corners for a bit of sparkle.  Hope you like it.

    That sounds like a good idea to me Wendy and good value as well.

    A lovely easel card and what a very pretty cornered die.

    Thanks so much sharing with us at Pretty Little Ribbons challenge this month.
