Ribbon at In the Pink

Hello and welcome to my very neglected blog, but at last I have been crafting and catching up on DT work, but you will have to wait a few more days to see what I've been doing this week.
This card was made a few weeks ago, for a blog friends Birthday,  I never got round to showing it, but as it fits in with the new challenge at In the Pink which is Ribbon/Ruffles, well better late than never.
The main image is Katzelcraft, matted onto Fleur de Lise square die cuts,  the background is IndigoBlu Vintage Flourish.  I wish I could take a straight photo, it isn't as lopsided as it looks!
Just a quick post as I need to finish an of Anniversary card before I go to bed! but I must say 'Hello' to my 3 new followers, lovely to see you and I'll catch up with you over the weekend.
I am also entering this at:
  Crafty Creations - No pattered paper (stamped background)
  Flourishes Timeless Tuesday - Frame it

Enjoy your weekend whatever you're doing.

Hi Folks,

Hope everyone is safe and well in this snowy weather, although we have had snow all day, it has been wet and making the previous snow into slush - I hate this bit!
My card today is for the Challenge at In The Pink and its there by the skin of my teeth!  Still felt the need for something pretty, and as the challenge suggests, its PINK!  The paper is a Pink Petticoat freebie, stitched and distressed, added half a lace 'cake' doily again distressed. The CI image was stamped in Brown StaZon and coloured with Spun Sugar Distress marker.  My shabby flower is TH Tattered Florals, with a lace and pearl centre and a bottom layer of gauze (raided the First Aid box again) and lace.

I also added 3 vintage lace flowers from my stash.  The bow was coloured with Spun Sugar and Tattered Rose.
I am also entering this in:

  Stampin for the Weekend - Something Girlie

That's it for me, I'm making the most of this snowy weather by staying in and 'playing'
