Surprise!
Once again it's Dream Valley Challenges time and this fortnight's theme is "SURPRISE!"
You can make a pop-up card, or include a hidden tag, or have a lift-the-flap element - there are links on the Dream Valley blog to sites with examples and tutorials to whet the appetite!
The sponsor is
They're offering a $10 Canadian dollars voucher to spend in their shop so do stroll across and have a dekko at what's there!
I've been away in North Wales this last week, so didn't have time to use one of the digis, unfortunately. Instead I used a Lili of the Valley image called Sprinkled With Sugar isn't it adorable? The tag and sentiment are also LotV.
The papers are Basic Grey 'Nook and Pantry' (I think - they were in my snippets box!) I used foam pads to stick the image onto the front, leaving the side open to insert the tag. I die-cut the scrolled base of the tag using a Nestie in the same card that I used for matting, so it would look like part of the decoration!
The flowers are Wild Orchid and the leaves are a Magnolia doohickey die. I scattered white Flower Soft and Glamour Dust on the icing sugar to give some texture and bling - unusually for me, there's no other glitter!
The lace is a scrap of lace which I used on a dress I made for my daughter when she was 3. It was a long time ago - this card is for her 25th birthday!!!
Anyway, I hope you like it. Go and have a look at the gorgeous 'surprises' my teamies have made - they're an ingenious and talented bunch!
Now I'm off to Saino's, but hopefully I'll be back to catch up with your lovely blogs.
Thanks for looking!
luv, Mags x
