Less is More Challenge - week 11- Acetate


My holiday must have done me good. I was instantly inspired to use my Marianne Designable folder. I have used a purple A5 card and trimmed the edge using my Rotatrim and blade Victorian. I added a few tiny pink jewels and a pink ribbon re-cycled from another card I received. (Waste not want not) I hope the design shows throu OK. Off to plant up my hanging baskets with all my plants I bought back from the UK.

OOPSSS Sorry forgot to link:
