Girly...

Good morning....welcome to Friday....welcome to our new follower......( oh my....I am going to have to get some Candi ready to give away when we reach 200 followers.....not long now...) and welcome to a new Challenge over at the Fussy and Fancy Friday Challenge Blog...

Our new theme is Girly....and is hosted by the lovely and very talented Celine...

This month we are sponsored by Sweet Lilac Flowers and Fresh Brewed Designs...

Here is my DT inspiration and I have used Hazel Blowing Bubbles # 2027 from Fresh Brewed Designs...and I knew as soon as I saw it that it would compliment my Clarity bubbles stencil, stamp....and I even had a Clarity sentiment in mind too..

I started with a piece of Gelli card, Jo's Bubbles stencil , Raspberry Adirondack ink and a stencil brush...

I then changed the position of the stencil and changed the ink to Purple Twilight...

I stamped the sentiment and added some stencilled colour too.

Next came the bubbles stamp from Clarity...everyone needs this stamp...

A little tip if you add some black dots with your fine liner pen the bubbles look more realistic...

Next I added some colour to Hazel....with my Spectrum Noir pencils...

Then assembled my card, adding some gorgeous flowers from Sweet Lilac flowers....oh the leaves are from S.L. Too...

As this is a Girly card I had to use a ribbon bow and a dazzler....

Glossy Accents just finished the bubbles perfectly....another crafters must have...

If you would like to see the rest of the work from the DT just go to the .....http://fussyandfancyc hallenge.blogspot.co.uk

And even better ...why not join in and make a card....

I am off now to do the food shop ....not my favourite job....but it will be a quick in and out of the shops then I can get home and carry on crafting...still jobs on my list for this week...

Karl and me are going out for a meal tonight with special friends of ours...so I am really looking forward to that....

I hope you have a lovely weekend...

Much love and hugs...
