I am so excited.

Good evening friends.
I hope you are well and have had a lovely weekend. I would like to say hello to my new followers - it is lovely to meet with you through blogland. 

My daughter Sophie sent me a link from Facebook last week about a shop which is opening on the 22nd April.  The shop is called Quirky Crafts and crafter's can rent a space in the shop to sell their crafts. I am so excited to be part of this new business, though it is going to be very stressful making sure I have enough cards to display. My days off from now on are going to be very busy. 

I have a card to show you today which I made for a work colleague whose son is getting married. I think I am safe showing it before the wedding as it is abroad and all the guests will have arrived by now. 

I love making cards in this Cerise pink - so bright and beautiful.
A product list will be at the bottom of the post with a direct link to the site where you can purchase the products.


I have coloured the image with Distress Markers.


 The flowers are a combination of LOTV and Live and Love Crafts. I have added Frantage to the image matt.  The photo frame was made from a Katie Sue Mould using Air drying clay. The message was computer generated.


I cannot give you the link to the lace because I cannot remember where I bought it. Sorry.

I would like to enter this card into the following challenges
