Ivory and Cream Card........

Evening everyone! My second post in a day, but I really wanted to get this card done for a couple of challenges that I wanted to enter. I have to say that I'm starting to get hooked and they really focus the mind :-).
 
I was inspired to make this card from Julie's entry over on Midweek Magnolias by using just ivory and cream. I'm a big fan of white on white cards and really enjoyed making this.
 
 
As is my preference at the moment I coloured the image with distress inks and then highlighted with stickles glitter.
 
 
I embellished it with ribbon, lace (piece of recycled net curtain!), flowers and pearls. I also used La La Land Heart Banner, which I've seen on a few cards and just had to get. This is my first card using it.
 
 
The ingredients used for the card:
 
Go Kreate - XXL Square Frame - Frilly #9
Spellbinders - Timeless Rectangle
Die'sire Embossing Folder - Floral frenzy
Magnolia Tilda Stamp - Sleeping Baby Tilda
Magnolia Tilda Paper - Something Old
La La Land Die - Heart Banner
Flowers (WOC and The Ribbon Girl)
Lace(Net!) from my stash
Ribbon
Pearls
Rose Charm (WOC)
Distress Inks
 
Challenges
 
Magnolia Down Under Challenge - #193 - Going Green Baby Recycle (net curtain aka lace)
Midweek Magnolia - week #57 Copycat (inspired by Julie)
The Ribbon Girl - April Colour Challenge - Ivory and Cream
 
Thanks for taking the time to stop by. Toodle pips.
