This is my entry for the Cuttlebug and Vellum card over at http://cuttlebugchallenge.blogspot.com/2009/04/cuttlebug-and-vellum-make-great-easter.htmlIt's not quite and Easter theme but it does have vellum and I've "cuttlebugged" it with Swiss Dots folder, plus there are gerberas in the shops now and it's Easter :o)
The gerbera is my own photograph decoupaged and the BP was designed from another of my own photographs by Pat, my partner in crime over on http://www.jandppictures.co.uk/ I really enjoyed making this one :o)
Materials/equipment:
Own photographs
Own/Pat's backing paper
Vellum
Martha Stewart doily lace punch
Cuttlebug folder
Ribbon
Pink gems for a bit of bling
