Floral card for my Aunt


Monday will be my aunt's 70th birthday - so a great chance to make a pretty, feminine card.  I found the image on the net whilst looking for free colouring images and I just fell in love with the design.

I picked the traditional style Anna Griffin paper because the blue trailing flowers mimicked the flowers on the gate post.  I have used one of my four new Martha Stewart paper punches which I was lucky enough to have for Mother's Day last Sunday.  The image is coloured with Pro Markers (again!).

 

I've added a touch of glitter to the flowers and to the little hat ribbon - not sure if my photography skills will show that too well though!

I am entering this card into the Creative Cottage challenge for this week which is FLOWERS.

Thanks for taking the time to visit!
