For my card I have used a kraft card base, and Pink Paislee Nantucket paper stack, and Nantucket clear Stamps. I stamped the Dogwood floral image onto some ivory card twice, in Memento London Fog, and cut using the out of the box technique with my nesties, then hand cut the second image to decoupage on top.
I then layered this onto a frame cut using a pretty Marianne Creatables frame in some of the pink chevron patterned paper. I layered this onto a panel cut using some yellow gingham paper, stamped with a running stitch stamp by hero Arts.I then cut some tags using Papertrey Ink's Tiny Tags and co-ordinating dies, and attache a couple to the card using some pink and yellow twine, wrapped around the card with some pink velvet ribbon all from The Ribbon Reel.
I then added a little grey flourish using Papertrey Ink's Mat Stack 1 collection, and added some grey pearls.
Finally added a yellow Prima resin flower.

I actually had this finished yesterday, but didn't have time to post as I went to the big Hobbycrafts show at the NEC in Birmingham. I came away with these goodies, but, some people had suitcases of stuff!! It was very busy, and completely manic, but we all had a great time, and a few of us had a little snooze on the coach home lol!
I now have to put my lovely new loot away, and I can't wait to use my new stamps and dies!
Thanks for stopping by,
Pauline

Adorable card Pauline - that dogwood floral is so elegant in the soft grey.
I'm excited to see your haul from the show too ;) I managed to pick up a few bits when I was there myself on Friday. I scored that WOW brocade stamp too, but I'm cursing that I missed finding a Glue Pad. It's on my list so I'm annoyed not to have spotted that one!
