Pink and Girly at Ladybug Crafts

 Hi everyone, its time for another challenge over at Ladybug Crafts Ink and this time the theme has been chosen by none other than little old me!
Now, being a girly girly what other theme could I choose than
'Pink and Girly'
This is my favourite kind of card to make and means that I can indulge myself in all things girly!!!

For my card I have used the fabulous Birthday Nikki and coloured with copics.
I used my sewing machine for the stitching.  The pink heart doily is from ebay.
The wide ribbon is from Ladybug Crafts Ink and is simply gorgeous.  The other ribbon is from my stash.
The smaller heart is a Memory box die.
The flower is a Loopy Bloom die.
I have added stickles and gems to make it really sparkly and girly.







So why not come and join the challenge.  You dont have to use a ladybug image but there are loads to choose from and we get all excited when you do!!!

I would like to enter this card into the following challenges:
Celebrate the occaision - Birthday (must use bling)
Hooked on Craft Challenges - Hearts
Make it Monday - Anything Goes
Love to Create Challenge - Add Stitching
