I created the Rosettes using "Ribbons and Rosettes" cartridge. The banner is from Martha Stewart All Occasional cake art.


Each Rosette has a different pattern on it..........If you would like more details on how I created this please head over to "Scrappy-Go-Lucky"

We decorated little facinators with Cricut flowers.

This is the flower I wore in my hair........it is quite big - 6 in. across. I used "Flower shoppe" to make it.

A Brooch and a Ring to match


It was fabulous getting to meet some blogging friends over the few days too!

Sparkle

I love the gorgeous photo inspirations at 'The Shabby Tea Room'.

All week I have been looking at the photo with no ideas of what to do..........today I finally came up with something:)

The Challenge is 'Colour Me Pretty' - use White/Cream, Pink , Blue, plus flowers and a fabric element....which can be ribbon, lace, fabric, burlap etc.

My inspiration came from the hanging light with pretty flower shape lamp shades. I sprayed some smooch ink on the crinkle ribbon and lace to match the colours in the photo.


I cut the chandelier from 'Wall Décor and More' cartridge. Covered it in lots of Glitter and added some pretty flowers. The base of the flower is from 'Flower Shoppe'. The papers are Papermania Blue Berry Hill.

Wish this was my place!


Enjoy your weekend everyone.........thank you for stopping by,
