Janey's Carnation


There was sketch on challenge I fancied doing and I have this fabulous Carnation/Dianthus Digi from Janey's Designs and thought it was perfect.
It was bit fiddly with all the layers and I used a Spellbinder die to ink inside the to give a simple card more depth.
Then I used a sentiment and the sketch went out the window I preferred it this way and I wasn't convince that was all it needed. Found a strip of Pink and I had to have a bit of ribbon but decided to make a flat bow so in case it would fit in normal post.

Hubby has asked for a card for the lady who is having their 98th Birthday I think this one will work.
Well Mr Virgin has improved but he still like dropping out just to remind me he's not perfect but Hubby had a couple days off work so we've been out and about. So I should be able to gauge how bad he really is.
Meanwhile my post for the new Simon Says Stamps Wednesday Challenge is schedule so back at 2pm
