Squares, triangles and circles at Ladybug Craft Ink...

Hi everyone, time for another challenge over at Ladybug Crafts Ink and this time its Sally's turn to host a challenge and she has chosen the theme of 
Shapes - Use a Square, triangle and circle
I had a good plan for this until I actually finished my card and realised that I had pretty much covered the triangle up lol.... You will have to take my word for it that there is a triangular piece of paper and card under the image (bottom left).....
I chose to use one of the fab new Teenager ImagesTexting Jess and indulged my passion for pink....
I coloured the image with copics and used my sewing machine for the stitching.
The papers are First Edition Spring Drop.
The swirl is Cheery Lynn Fanciful flourish which I cut up.  The butterflies are Cheery Lynn butterfly dies.
The sentiment is from Lili of the Valley.
I have used two gorgeous ribbons from Ladybug Crafts Inkpale pink satin pleats over the top of pink satin with pom poms.
The cute gems are also from Ladybug Crafts Ink, as are the nail heads.





Don't forget that there is a Sale still on until 17th April...


So why not come and join in our fab challenge, you dont need to use a ladybug image but we love it when you do....

I would like to enter this card into the following challenges:
Love to Create - Birthday
Make it Monday - Anything Goes
Paper Pretties - Lots of Layers
Sir Stampalot Challenge- Happy Birthday
One stop Craft Challenge - Pastel and die cuts
