Hello! This card is for the Technique Lovers Challenge 290 "Lace sponging" Well, I looked everywhere and could not find lace so I grabbed an article of clothing that is made out of lace (and I am so not sharing what it was) and I tried sponging it in with no success. I guess it was easier said than done cause I thought it would be so easy. Anyways I decided to use a doily, I hope that was ok. Colors said Christmas to me so I might use it as a thank you card for X-mas. Clean and simple, hope you like it! TFL!

Very pretty! I considered using a lace paper doily also, but went a different way.

Very pretty, great idea to use a doily. You were not the only one for whom this did not go smoothly. My final card was my third attempt at this technique. I couldn't get the ink to sponge through the lace.
