Shabby Pastels

Hi Everyone! I'm back again, with the second of today's cards. This one is for the Truly Scumptious challenge of Shabby Pastels and Paint.

I'm back on the book cards - this one is for a dear friend of mine whose in her 70's and took up card crafting about 18 months ago. She's gone from being a complete novice to making cards that rival mine. She's loving it and I just wanted to give her a little something to start the new year in style and so I've made her this to put in a couple of stamps that I've got her to add to her small stash.
The image is by Just Inklined and is one of my all time favourites, coloured with promarkers and decoupaged. The oval is embossed with my cuttlebug florish folder and the background paper is from a 12x12 sheet i've had since my last trip to the NEC hobbycraft fair over a year ago! The ribbon and pips are from stash.

Thanks for stopping by and looking! Happy Crafting x
