It's for the Post!

Hello,  just a short post to show that I can make a girly card without flowers - I had to - it needs to go in the post.
I used a pale pink card base and after masking my Runway Girl, used the Gothic stencil with Dusty Concord.  I had intended leaving my Runway girl's dress uncoloured, but it just seemed to fade into the background, so she got a paper pieced dress instead. The sentiment is Hero Arts.
I am going to enter this at:
  Alphabet Challenge - L for Lavender (hope Lavender colour counts)
  That's Crafty - Stencils and Masks
  Seize the Birthday - Anything Goes Birthday

That's it for now, enjoy your weekend.

    Hi Avril, A very pretty card, so out of your normal style. Liked the idea of paper piecing the Runway Girl's dress and yes Lavender as a colour is perfect for our challenge at Alphabet Challenges. Thanks for sharing with us. Hope your well. Caz
