Happy New Year!

To start the New Year I thought I would have a go at making some cards using doilies, as they seem to work really well either on their own or with a topper.  The first two cards that I have made are using Dovecraft Tea Party doilies which I have mounted behind Lily of the Valley fairy toppers.  The background papers are also from Dovecraft Back to Basics 3, which have gone really well with the colours within the toppers.  I also got out my Cuttlebug and cut out two small flourish dies to make it a little more interesting. To finish the cards off I then used small flowers and gems and then a sentiment.

The last card is off another fancy doily which came from Ebay, I mounted this onto some KC designer paper and put a piece of organza ribbon behind it.  I then finished it off with a sentiment in the middle and a self-adhesive pearl in each corner of the card.  All cards were made using a 6x6 card blanks, this being the first time that I have made a card of this size.

Thanks for looking, Jackie x
