I took my granddaughters home today after their stay with me, I've had them since Tuesday. The school holidays are over and I thought Amelia would be going back to school on Monday but her school has a pupil free day and she will be starting back on the Tuesday. Mum will get an extra day free from the routine of getting up early and organizing everything and getting the baby sorted out and everyone in the car to drive to the school. Such is life, LOL. I managed over the years and I had 5 to sort out and run around here and there with!
Well, onto today's card.
I'm going to enter my card into the Lollipop Ladies Challenge

Challenge #25 - Swedish Princess Cake
Welcome to our newest sweet treat challenge here at The Lollipop Ladies, have we got a delicious challenge for you this fortnight!
This time we want you to take inspiration from a Swedish Cake called a Princess Cake, which is a type of sponge really with lots of yummy cream, custard and jam fillings inside topped with Marzipan:
The added extra is to use PEARLS on your creation.
Well, here is my card for this challenge,
The basecard is SU Pear Pizazz and matted with a pink cardstock also SU and then a DSP from Kaisercraft. The image is stamped in SU Close to Cocoa and coloured with Copics and a Marvy Marker for the green. I faux stitched around the nestie die cut which is "Very Vanilla" and also the sentiment. I used SU Teeny Tiny Sentiments. I've added some tiny pearls to the tips of her crown.
Blogger is playing up and this is my second go at this post because it wouldn't put the picture in, hopefully it will this time,
Take care,
Sandy
Oh my goodness, your card is darling. I love the image that you used, too cute.
ReplyDeleteI have to know where you live, because the heat index was 110 here yesterday and our air conditioners are working overtime.
