A card made a little while back

Good afternoon! Sitting here feeling crappy again. Well, I have a little time on my own now as the rest of the family is on a party. Not the best place to be with headace. Time to post a card again as it has not been lots of it lately. Have keept a little too busy I think by making a few cards that was needed to day and then some party decorations as well. A tiny bit too much, have to start to plan better I guess. :) So can anyone tell me how to fit in about 80 X-mas cards to the first of December without having to stress about them? Oh well, it's just August and I have started to colour...


Ok, then back to my card. A friend of my mum, and auntie turned 70 the other week and they wanted me to make a card in blue and white. It didn't quite end up like that but almost. LoL I used one of the wonderful Sarah Kay images coloured with distress ink. Matched it all up with flowers, ribbon, metal corners, pearls, a swirl...The DP is Maja Design, "Lantliv". Wonderful papers! I also believe I snuck in a piece from the "Skärgårdsliv" as well.


And now off to the lovely Feline Playful blog to see if I can fit the card into some challenges as well. Hope you're having a great weekend!

Love n hugs
Marie

Beautiful card. So lovely design. I want to try to design like this for the Plastic cards, if you don't mind. I appreciate this.
