I have been drooling over Kazans and Lauras sketches for a while so decided to have a go.
I also set myself couple of additional challenges:
1) Use up as many scraps as possible
2) Go for colours that usually wouldn't be my first pick
3) And the card has to be of practical value - meaning I'd actually have to know what I'll do with it! :D
Polka dot ribbon came from a packet of paper flowers, not enough for wrapping the card but enough for a bow. Papers are from my scrap bag, heart is made of chipboard from paper pack backing (stamping & UTEE), flowers are cheapo ones from Ebay altered with acrylics and stamping. :D
Lavender & green are usually not my first choice colour combination but I kinda like it after finishing the card.
