FEMININE AND PRETTY

Here's another offcut of DP that I found in my offcuts box, and so I used it for this card to enter into the photo inspiration challenge here as this is the photo inspiration pic to use:



The bench is a die that I have been battling to cut, and when I used a sheet of 80gsm white printer paper, it worked perfectl, and al the extra bits almost fell out - guess that die doesn't like cardstock.
I found an empty basket colouring page on the internet, coloured it with copics, and sewed on some sequins as flowers.  

I also added organza ribbon
and a red flower

Each component on my card relates to something in the picture
white card base - white bed linen
DP - curtains
die cut -- wicker benches
basket - basket in picture


organza ribbon - mosquito sleeping net
red sequin flower - red scatter cushions on bed
