Lucy is Sweet 16

It's Monday which means there is a new challenge at Dream Valley Challenges ...


This week we don't have a sponsor so the challenge is just for fun. The theme is:

ANYTHING GOES


As always the design team have come up with some inspiration to get your creative juices flowing - here's my card:



I needed to create a card for my Niece, Lucy, who turns 16 this week. She's a very girly girl - loves everything pink, pretty and sparkly. I kept the design layout simple but added fancy touches with the scalloped die and the sparkly gems. I love these NitWits papers - so pretty! 

What I used:

Papers - NitWits
Gems - from stash
Scalloped die - Spellbinders
Number dies - Stephanie Weightman 
Greeting - Copperplate font

I'm entering this card into the challenges at:

A Cut Above (August) - AG with a die cut

Daring Cardmakers - Lucky numbers

Try It On Tuesday - Make it feminine

Creative Fingers #283 - AG

Paper Minutes - Birthday

Creative Friday #366 - Square

Crafty Calendar August - AG


So have a pop over at the Dream Valley Challenge Blog to see some more lovely inspiration from my teamies on the design team and have a chance at winning a prize.

Thanks for visiting
