Rudolph day - April

Blossoms and bows
This Penny Black Image seemed perfect for the look I wanted. Fresh and clean looking. I added a slight dusting of Turquoise chalk to the flower and Butterflies using some cotton wool but it does not show on the photo. I tried several times to get a better photo but to no avail.The chalking really helps in linking the image with the coloured card and looks much better in real life. I used a bold floral DP so did not want to over embellish the card. I added just a few sparkly turquoise gems, lace, a bow and sentiment. I hope you like it.
I have just noticed the lace is a bit skew whiff so I will amend that before sending it off to someone.
I have entered my card into a few challenges listed below.

When I take a look at your web site in Safari, it looks fine but when opening in I.
