ALL WHITE CROSSOVER CARD.

Hello again everyone.  Wow, I have been busy in my craftroom this past few days, it looks like I have got some inspiration back at long last.

I would like to enter this card into the following challenges.

Mod Squad.  SPECIAL FOLDED CARD.



For this SPECIAL FOLDED CARD, I have had a go at making a CROSSOVER CARD.
I have used a variety of DIES, PUNCHES & EMBOSSING FOLDER.
It is going to be easier to list what I have used rather than explain the mechanics of it all. It took a long while to create, but oh my goodness, I Love It.

TIED KNOTS embossing folder by CRAFTS TOO.
SWISS DOTS by PROVO CRAFT.
Spellbinders TEAR DROP CIRCLES.

My image is from Digi Darla called BABY ZEBRA. The FLOWERS have been made using the
SUN & DAISY punches, layered and then GEMSTONES or CARD CANDI for the centres. I have used the Die-namites - WINDY WHEAT for the FOLIAGE and the sentiment tablet reads

ROWENA IN BLUE & WHITE.

Good morning to you all. I hope that you have all had a wonderful time at Christmas and received lots of lovely goodies. For me, I don't like the New Year Celebrations and its so nice to get back to normality.

I then die-cut a Spellbinders CLASSIC SCALLOPED SQUARE in white and then added a panel of the same background card and positioned at an angle.
My image is from The Paper Shelter and is called ROWENA which has been coloured with Promarkers and mounted onto TURQUOISE CARD. All edges have the same
