This card is fro two SCS challenges and the CAS Colour & Sketches Challenge #273.
CC688; the colour challenge for this week is to use Smokey Slate, Watermelon Wonder & Old Olive. This is a lovely combination and there are some really gorgeous cards in the gallery.
MMTPT513; The teapot challenge for this week is to make a card for a twelve nearly thirteen year old who loves going to tea parties ... perfect. No added points for me but I did add some bling, what twelve year old doesn't like bling ... hang on I still like bling and i'm just a wee bit older lol.
CAS Colour & Sketches Challenge #273; this was a sketch challenge for this week and I have been true to the sketch other than to add ribbon where the sentiment should have gone.
Very straight forward card that took about 90 minutes from beginning to end. There seems to be a theme in my craft room at the moment ie; white heat embossing .... should be over it soon.
Thanks for looking Cheers Marg.

Who doesn't love bling.... Great design ...I really like that dp and the white embossing on the gray looks terrific...you've got me looking for my white ep..you've used to much advantage on your last few cards. I'm sure Arabella will love getting this beautiful card in the mail...and all the way from Oz!

The white embossing looks lovely on the gray paper; I personally don't think it's ever over done 😉. Nicely done with that festive dsp and pretty ribbon!

Don't get over that white heat embossing TOO soon; it's such a lovely look and one of my favorites! This is such a good, classic layout and I love the cheerful striped paper and bling for a young lady : )
