Lili of the Valley challenge – one for the girls

This week our the theme on Lili of the Valley challenge is One for the Girls, a nice easy challenge that is right up my street!

I dug out some old, old K&Co paper pads (I forgot just how much I love them) for this card.  This pad is Bailey, love the autumnal colours.

I did a side fold card for a change, they show off the inside much better than a top fold does I think.  I made a little pocket for the DooHickey tag to go in.

The flowers and lace are Wild Orchid Crafts, how perfect are the colours for the papers!!  The little dragonfly charm (that has twisted back to front in the picture grrr) is from Ebay (I have started using my charms again, I had gone off them for a while).

Copics used:

Hat, dress & shoes:  E09, E08, E95

Mirror:  Y26, Y11 and a few dots with the colours used on the hat and skin

    Hi Bev
    lovely card, love the L.O.T.V. image. I was looking at the paper's & thought I'd seen them before, & lo & behold under my mound of paper's I found them lol.

    I would love to go to the NEC, but hubby is unable to drive me this time, and say's it wouldn't be safe for me (& other driver's)lol, to drive there & back on my own. I tried the pouty look but it didn't work rotfl, perhaps next year. Hope you & other's who go have a great time.
    hugs

    I love the inside of this Bev - & those reds are such a match for the papers. Had to smile at the Dragonfly. Hope to be there on Sun but we're driving from Brecon...... well my friend is. Thrilled that I might be able to meet you - you were one of my first encounters with blogland way back in Feb this year.
