Yeah it's not a Christmas card! Although I do think it rather thoughtless of people to have birthdays this week when I am no where near completely my Christmas cards - however seeing as it Shelley's boyfriend's mum I'll let her off.To create the card at top speed (in order to get back to those Christmas cards) I've used an image and backing paper from Joanna Sheen's Fashion Boutique CD. The images on this are just beautiful and I particularly like the backing paper that matches this image. To add oomph I've added feather embellishments to echo the ones on the image and backing paper.
Couldn't decide whether to go for a black or white bow so did something I've never done before and tied the two together - think I like the effect and may do it again in the future.
I used the sketch from Sketch Saturday and tweaked it a little to fit my embellishments. My card is also for the challenge Crafty Ann's , where the theme is to add texture.
Have a great day.

Just perfect Ann good idea with the ribbons - just right. Tess x
Stunning card Ann, I love the image, often looked at it but never used it yet. I know what you mean about December birthdays I've got 7 and some of my customers have some too.
