Round and Round~



Hi All~
Can I say sorry for the photo, don't know why it looks so insipid, it's quite purple, but looks a bit wishy washy~
Well good start to the week for me I am glad to say.
I have been to my monthly craft meeting called Cut and Chat (yes...there is a lot of chat goes on!, but thats good!) Where 8 to 10 ladies meet up, craft and drink coffee/tea for two hours, it is bliss...What more could you want, good company and craft.

When I got home I was desperate to make a card, as at the group I was Scrapbooking my daughters Egypt holiday photo's.
Anya was on the books tonight. This is not a stamp I have, a friend stamped her for me, she is lovely isn't she? Not sure what her name is, I like the way she has a little apron on...cute!

I wanted to do a circle easle card, as the Anyone for Anya challenge said NO SQUARE cards~~
That one always throws me, as I am a 6x6 girl...but I was quite pleased with the finished result, what do you think?

Not sure who makes this purple circle paper as It was a piece I had left over.
I decided to stamp flowers onto it and cut them out, I then added glossy accents to the centre of them.
A MS punch was used for the border, I have also used the oval Nestie around Anya, and the ribbon is so sweet, pale lilac dotty, bought from the internet.
Voila~

Challenges this card fits too:

I thought round at first when i was given the challenge, i ended up making a spring fold card though. I've got that stamp too from last months craft stamper, it's a good magazine.

Good luck with the challenge
