Shabby Chic Purple and White Card

Hello everyone,

Just a quick post of my latest creation:


I wanted to enter some challenges that were ending soon, so I created this card...I am sure it will find a happy home :)


I used Spellbinders Fleur de Lis die to create the frame for the key, Sizzix branch die for all the branches, Memory Box wreath die that I cut in half to create the flourish effect on the side of the frame, Ballerina slippers die by Cheery Lynn and Spellbinders flower die for my tissue paper flowers.


I added a few pearls here and there...


One more look at the finished card...

I would like to enter this card into following challenges:



Paper Ladybirds Task #50 with this gorgeous sketch:


Scrapy Land Challenge #21 "Anything Goes" List of dies is in my post...

I hope you enjoyed this post...
Have a wonderful day and thanks for stopping by...

    Just stunning Samra! I find all white cards to be one of the hardest to do, but you make it look so easy! I just love your lush flowers and the ballerina slippers are such a wonderful accent...along with that fabulous little key, it leaves the card open for many different occasions! A breathtaking piece! big hugs and see you out on the dance floor. :)

    I love how you cut the Memory Box wreath die in half! It looks awesome! I have that same die and never thought to use it that way before, but I think I will now! Your card is very elegant and beautiful. Thanks for playing along with us at Scrapy Land Challenge #21!

    My gosh! Talk about a versatile card! I was thinking that with just the key in the center it could be a Valentine card, or Anniversary card, a graduation card with the key to the world...it has so many possibilities and I love those dainty ballet shoes. How you interpreted the sketch is amazing. I'd never seen that blog before and OMG....what inspiration. Your card is out of this world beautiful. Nicely done Samra!!! :)
    big hugs,
