Blue Wrap.


Sharing a card I made a while back. 




Lots of photos I'm afraid, just wanted to make sure you could see how beautiful the wrapping paper was that I used instead of design paper.




Isn't it gorgeous, a great way to use up remnants. 




It doesn't show in the photo but there is the most gorgeous metallic gold in with the shades of blue.



I layered the papers with complimentary card stock and then just had to line the envelope for a classy look.



I'm using this card for the following challenges:-
IMF118, Anything goes,
SACC22, Anything goes,
4CC157, Squares,
ASC88, Sentiment,
DDCC232, Birthday wishes,
TTT August, Scrap.

Happy Ladybug Tuesday! 
At Last, it's time for a
For this one we would like to see you use this colour prompt.


 


I used the gorgeous "Billie Bunting" from the New release, how clever of Kerry to also have them without the numbers now!



I teamed my image with the gorgeous Nitwits papers at LOTV papers that luckily had almost all of the colours already, I did also add yellow to the bunting but got a bit carried away and changed it before realising, luckily Billie's little heart is still lemon!
