My first challenges this year!

Dear friends,
I hope you are enjoying the sunshine today wherever you are, it's a beautiful day here on the southeast coast of Kent and I've already planted 5 new shrubs this morning!!!

I have to be honest and say that this is not the first challenge I have ever entered, but having said that this is only the 2nd or 3rd time I've participated in blog challenges, so here goes lol!

I'm entering this card into the
It's a 6" square scalloped card created by . . . . 

Layering purple mirror card which has been covered with white 'spider web mesh' with,
a layer of white card embossed using a Couture Creations folder called 'Tied Together' and inked around the edges with a purple ink pad from Papermania.

The main image is from the Beautiful Birdcages cd rom by Magik Graphics (formerly Jems Designs)
and the flowers are a combination of some that I have made myself with a couple of pink shop bought roses.
A few gems and mauve organdie ribbon from stock et voila!

Thanks for stopping by

    A beautiful card Leslie and it would have brought a smile to Wendy's (Purple Crazy) face. I didn't know Jem's designs had changed their name - will have to look them up.
