Swap Card April 2015

I belong to a little swap group on Facebook and we exchange cards once a month. This month the theme was "Blue". This is the card I made and sent to my swap partner. 

The card is 6"x 6" and I covered it with dark blue pearlised card. I then embossed  a piece of white card using an X-cut folder and used Pan Pastels to colour it. I wrapped blue satin ribbon around it before fixing it to the card. 

I die-cut flowers using a Heartfelt Creations Delicate Asters. Once made up I sprinkled them with Frantage and added blue faux pearls to the centres.

I finished the card with a little blue satin bow.
If you're in the UK and like to swap cards ask me to add you to our little group. You'd be more than welcome.
I've entered this card in the following challenges:

  4. What a beautiful card, I love blue and the shades you have chosen are lovely. That is a clever way to use the frantage too. Now where did I put that jar?! ;) Vee xx

    1. Hi Jackie, thank you for the lovely comment. It's only a small, but lovely, group and not everyone swaps every month, so, a draw is done every month and depending on how many people are taking part and how many cards they want to swap, repeats do happen. Let me know if you'd like to join the group xx
