Here's a card I have just completed for a challenge. I've used ds paper from K & Co, and paper from Sasafrass Lass (been in my stash for AGES like about 4 years!). I've just done some edge inking, added some sweet flower felties that came on a UK mag I got today (thank you QC!), a little bling here and there, and a sliver peeloff sentiment. I really don't like the side of the ds paper I've used for the card, as it's incredibly busy, and just isn't me... but after seeing the sketch, I thought this paper would make a great background, like a very old eiderdown quilt I have. So I've managed to turn a paper I didn't like, into one that I did like!
Happy Days!

Pauline this is adorable! Love the papers you chose and that sweet little bird.
How clever to use up paper like that - I'm so glad you got the chance to play along with us! The card is so sweet and I love the bird and flowers. :)
