Have a sweet day...!!

Hi everyone...

Yesterday I had my Copics out and coloured in this gorgeous Tilda from 

the Pink lemonade collection!!

I wanted to do a card with a mint and peach theme... 

So I grabbed some supplies from my shop, 

Prima flowers, peach ribbons, some papers and a pretty mint Trim..!!

This is what I came up with....

The card base and pieces were cut out using my Silhouette machine...

and the Heart doily border is a die from La la land crafts!!

This Sweet sentiment id by C.C designs.. "Have a sweet day"..

I added some clear Wink of Stella for some sparkles, Glossy accents to her shades and some opaque white paint for detail!!

All my edges were inked using an ink edger by Prima in the colour of Attic dust..

Thankyou for visiting me... 

I had fun putting this card together to share with you!!
