Challenge #427 - Embellishments - The Paper Shelter

Good Morning Paper Shelter Followers I hope that you are coping okay with the lockdown, as Im writing this is possible we will be given some news soon about how much it will start to change in the future to try and get the country working normally again, no doubt its going to take some organization to sort out.
This weeks theme is all about


Embellishments

and this means that you must use either, ribbon, lace, buttons and anything that will enhance your card.
And you will find some beautiful images over at The Paper Shelter and there's lot to choose from for this theme to. Our Sponsors are and as always are The Paper Shelter and they are offering a fabulous prize of $30. to spend on their website. 

But don't forget they will only give you the whole amount if you have used one of their images on your card but don't worry if you haven't, they will still give you 3 digi images or your own choice if you are picked as a winner.
For this weeks card I have used this image




For my own card I have used this image Exotic Enchantment you will find her here, and I printed her onto white card and coloured her with my copic pens, afterwards I used a oval die to cut her out, and cut a larger one out of blue card I then used some lace around the edge to enhance the image.
The base card is a 6.50"x 6.50" white card with a first mount out of blue card then on top I used the backing paper that came with my image and you will find it here, I then placed my mounted image in the middle with the stamped sentiment which is also placed on a oval die cut made out of blue card and placed in the bottom right hand corner.
To finish of I placed several blue pearls in the other corners not used.
 Now that you've seen my card I do hope that you will pay a visit to The Paper Shelter Challenge Blogspot to see what the rest of the Design Team have created for your inspiration and hopefully you will want to take part in this  "Embellishments" Challenge to.
