Hi bloggers! Lovely lavender today! I started by stamping our new lavender card with the Victorian tile background stamp from Justrite. I used a clear Perfect Medium pad and heat embossed it with white powder. I stamped two of the Always and Forever medallion stamps with a black archival ink pad on coconut white card. I cut them out using the matching die and a smaller one to create a frame from them. I stamped the frame from the Always and forever set using a black archival ink pad. Before cutting it out, I stamped the Victorian Tile over the top of it and clear embossed it. I lined up the matching oval medallion die and also the next size up in the set so I ended up with my centre element and a matching frame in one cut. I turned the frame in the opposite direction from the sentiment and used the two earlier cut frames on the sides as accents. I wrapped a piece of lavender seam binding around opposite corners and tied a messy bow in the lower corner. I added a square Dazzler and two black stick pins as accents. I added some flatback pearls in the corners and pierced the edges of the double white mats to finish it off. I hope you like it! Finished dimensions are 5 3/4" x 7" in size.Now for the winner of the card giveaway from Saturday's post is...............

A lovely card to start the week but at the moment there seems to be something that's not getting me all bubbly like the majority of your cards do - I cannot put my finger on what it is as I love lavender in all shades - perhaps it will grow on me.
