September Colour - Pink & Lavender

Our lovely Hostess enclosed an embossed perfume bottle image in her Christmas card to me and this is the month I get to use it!

Here it is .....

I used a pink purple background paper and second generation stamped it with pink and purple inks.  The image was popped up on 3D foam and I added borders at top and lower edge.  The borders were made from nail decoration bought from a door to door company several years ago!  I laid some glue along the edge and tipped the tiny balls over as though they were embossing powders.  A torn PC printed sentiment along the lower half completed the card.

I painted some glitter nail varnish over this background paper but left the lower corner empty.   I used a die cut frame to spotlight the plain area.  I needed a really 'good' sentiment for this card, one that would balance the the frame..... fund it in a magazine.... and so apt.

This little owl is just soooo cute!
I sorted out some 'owly' paper to use as a background, and after attaching it to the base card, used my corner punch to round the corners.
After I had added a line top and bottom of the card, I found an absolute brilliant sentiment!  
He! He!
Just LOVE it!  He! He!
