Hello everyone!

I have a card to share today which I made for the Papericious July Challenge. We have a Moodboard challenge for you this time to be inspired with. You can check out all the details HERE on the Papericious blog. Here's my card inspired by it.

(I was inspired by the colours as well as the white mulberry flowers, the woodgrain background and the mesh from the Moodboard)

I have used the Papericious - My Golden Garden paper for the base, then layered it with the Papericious Wooden collection and finally used the Papericious Infinity Collection papers for die-cutting that doily.

The flowers are from my stash and I have added some Stickles on them for adding some shimmer. The leaves have been colored using Inka Gold which were die-cut from a Sizzix die. The bow is  made using Creme Seam Binding Ribbon. The hat-pins are from my stash again.

I have added a crotchet lace and the Martha Stewart Doily Lace punched border for layering. The sentiment is from the Altenew - Sentiments & Quotes set which has been heat-embossed using Ranger Gold Tinsel Embossing powder. I added a small butterfly from Martha Stewart to finish off my card! 

I'm entering my card in the Lulupu - July Sketch Challenge ( I have flipped the sketch upside down) , Peek-a-Boo Designs - Layers Challenge, Card-Mania - Lace and Pearls, Happy Little Stampers - Anything  goes with Dies

                              

I hope you liked my card. Please do leave me your comments/suggestions. I love hearing from you :)
