A LA MODE – THE NEXT LEVEL – CHALLENGE 6

.
The Challenge this week at The Next Level is a theme - Buttons and Bows. I decided to make my card with a new stamp from Stampington & Company, Fairytale Couture, Flora 2 and also to keep the design of the card fairly simple. I used a gorgeous digital range of papers called French Linen Collection from ScrapGirls.

The corners are metal embellishments - I am sorry I cannot remember where I got these from, part of my stash. They are silver, but I coloured them with a Black Copic marker to give a more vintage look. The gingham ribbon is american folk art style from my local garden centre.

The inside I have matted and layered with toning dotty paper, and featured again the range of papers from the digital kit. The chandelier is a digital image from Chandelierious Brush set No. 1 from Designer Digitals.

I cannot make a card without an envelope as I am sure you are aware by now - lol - but I decided to make this a very simple one as the beautiful papers from the kit really do speak for themselves.

If you stop by to look, if you have the time, please leave feedback, I would love your thoughts.

Thank you, Ann xxx
