Lace and Buttons!

Good morning all and we've sped around the week and it's Friday again!  But the good news is that Friday means time for a new challenge over at CraftyCatz!  And this week it's ME who's hosting the challenge!  Our sponsor this week is the fabulous Mei Flower Crafts - and I've picked a nice easy challenge - 'use Lace and Buttons' on your creation!

Now as I mentioned in my post yesterday, I've been playing with some of my 'older' stamps from LOTV and I've used the gorgeous Rosie Posy


Isn't she sweet? I've coloured the image with copics and promarkers 
The backing papers are from LOTV on kraft card. I've also used their 'stitches' stamp to add some faux stitching and an LOTV sentiment tag. I've added a Joy Crafts leafy die cut and DooHickey doily flower. The buttons are from stash - as is the lace.
And the inside decorated to match! 

So do pop over to the Crafty Catz challenge and have a look at the fantastic inspiration from the DT!  And then dig out your lace and buttons and join in!
Back soon,
Kim x

ThePaperShelter - flower power
