Sunday Challenge - Fabric

Good morning everyone! Well not good morning as it's 20:20 on a Saturday evening as I write this, I always schedule the Dottie's World's Sunday challenge DT post so that I don't sit there bleary eyes and write on a Sunday morn. So for all intents and purposes GOOD MORNING!!! Hope you slept well, I sure did!! LOL

On to the challenge! This week the lovely Nicola set the challenge; Nicola simply wanted to see some sort of fabric on our projects, it could be anything, even a bit of ribbon. I used some gorgeous totally lush fabric brads from the K&Co Ancestry collection for my compulsory element and some Prima lace ribbon for good measure.
Now this image is from the new collection "Holly & Madison around the World" which is COMING SOON! It features Holly in England but is not yet available. Just thought I'd tease you a little ;-) Holly's adorable sidekick here is Scruff from the Animal collection. Actually, come back tomorrow and I'll tease you a little more with my Monday Mojo card and yet another new image.
The patterned paper is K&Co Lotus Tea Rose and I cut out three of the flowers from the paper for the top.
The plain paper is Basic Grey
Fabric Brads are K&Co Ancestry
Lace Ribbon is Prima
Everything I used is of course available in my shop: Charmed Cards & Crafts.
The images are coloured in with Copics, and these are the colours I used:

Why not pop over to Dottie's World's and join the challenge? The DT will all pop over and check out your blog :-)
Thanks for coming to visit xx

Hi Karen

Thanks for your lovely comment on my blog! I really appreciate it. I love the Holly & Madison downloads. I've been colouring Madison in with some of my new copics, but I'm not quite happy with the effect yet. Once I am I will definately be back for the new ones, they look terrific! I saw them over Crafts by Louly earlier xx
