Anna Griffin Card

Another post today on cards, I am getting good aren't I, scroll down to see the other one.

Needed to make a nice card for my mum's friends birthday, which is today and they have both gone out shopping for the day. Which is a good choice as the weather is really rather pants here at the moment!

Anyway back to the job in hand. Card size had to be the square cream one and I dove into my lovely Anna Griffin stash for the embellies.

I love this floral paper of hers with it's ivory background and subtle colourways.

To match this paper I made up some of her diecut decoupage and layered these on top of the paper, even though they are not an exact match to the print underneath I think it still works.

The sentiment is from a great kit I got from QVC last year which was an A5 box fall of cardstock embellishments for all occasions, there were hundreds in there. They do come in very handy and are all foiled in either silver or gold tones.

And that's it, didn't want to overwork the card with lots of layers, simple but classic me thinks. xx

Supplies:
Papers - Anna Griffin
Die Cut Decoupage - Anna Griffin
Sentiment - QVC kit
Cardstock - My stash
