Birthday Princess - DT for Totally Gorjuss



Hi all,

The weekend is finally here, hopefully we will have a very stress free & relaxing one (ie - no more bad news this week please!!!!)  So as its Saturday it can only mean its time for a new challenge over at Totally Gorjuss, but before I announce the challenge I have a bit of news. I have been on the TG team for the last few months as a Guest Gorjussette, then last week the lovely Net who runs challenge asked me if I would like to stay on the team permanently - well there was only one answer to that question so I am now a full blown Gorjussette whoop whoop!!!!.

So anyway this weeks challlenge is a nice and easy one with a theme of

Anything Goes - With a little twist to add a button somewhere on your creation.

We are sponsered this week by the wonderful

Craft Supplies, Craft CDs & Tools for Card Making & Scrapbooking - Crafters Companion

So for my creation this week I used a fabulous image from the Swalk Collection called Little Princess, isnt she just an adorable little image. I chose to make my base card out of Acetate for something a little bit different and quite like how it turned out. (also I still had it on my desk after making the easel card lol!!!)


I coloured the image with my Polys for a softer look, I went mad for these and they cost hubby a fortune for the full set, but always seem to reach for my Promarkers so thought they desereved a little aring again. The fabby dotted paper is from a Kars pad and the flowers are a mix of WOC and some I picked up from the floristry warehouse along with the pins. I took the opportunity to make this card for Abbie who's birthday is on 1st April, and the little freebie sentiment was just perfect. I added a blingy Prima Swirl and 2 cute little buttons in the top LH corner to finish.

Well I hope you like my creation, please do pop on over to the challenge blog and check out my team mates wonderful creations and take part in this very easy challenge.

Thanks for popping by my blog today.
