Rosie - Art by Miran


Well half past week has arrived, and it has been a mixed bag so far, yesterday, was a disaster where my crafting was concerned.  Trimmer gave up the ghost, and it was a bargain I bought about 3 years ago at the SECC for a couple of pounds and loved it, best buy ever, bought a Cricut trimmer and a dozen blades from Amazon last month, and just hate it...so Hubby had to take a trip to The Range, after work and bought me the X Cut Guillotine, so fingers crossed I will get on better with this...LOL

I wanted to share this card with you, the image was a Freebie a couple of weeks ago, from Mi Ran Jung (Art by Miran) over on Facebook, her name is Rosie, and if you have not yet, gotten acquainted with Mi Ran's excellent art, pop over to her Facebook group and check out her talent. Or pop over to her blog, and follow, there is so much inspiration there.  I hope you like this card, I had such fun, creating it, and used some fabulous flowers that were given to me as a gift from the Talented and Gorgeous Lindsay - Craftymonster81, thank you Lindsay, love ya hun xxxx

I would like to enter this card into the following challenges:-

Papertake Weekly - Bows or Dies (or both) - there is a bow beside the flowers.
Fan-Tastic Tuesday - CH#19 - Make it Feminine
Through the Craft Room Door - TTCRD 21-27 January - Always Anything Goes
Artistic Inspirations - CH#75 - Anything Goes (use Ribbon)

 My Craft Creations - Anything Goes

I hope you all have a fabulous day, I am hoping the crafting is going to be better today, love and hugs to all xxxx

Thought I would pop in to see what you are up to - I love the monochromatic tones with the one soft splash of color in the yellow greens! I like the added details of the ribbon, three brads and the sprig of pearls with your flower - nicely done Avril!
