Pastel roses and pink champagne

I needed to make a 30th birthday card for my lovely PBSC DT teamie Joey, so I thought I would use this adorable and cute LotV kitty as this image strikes me as being perfect for a special celebration. I also had my first go with my new MS "eyelet lace" PATP, which I was primarily inspired to buy after seeing Dawny P's fab efforts with one.


Unfortunately the bright sunlight has rather bleached out the photo so the colours are a bit off kilter, but I've popped the card in the postbox now :-)

Challenges:
A Pocket Full of Posies #9 - Champagne & RosesWild Orchid Crafts #8 - PastelsCreative Card Crew - Let's Punch It!Simon Says - Punch 'Em
ABC - G is for Glitter
(I used pink glitter card for matting and numbers, and Stickles on my flowers .. photo just doesn't show it up very well!!)
Incy Wincy #65 - Lace & Pearls




Recipe:
Main image: LotV "Thomas with Champagne" coloured with Promarkers and Copics;
Sentiment: Craftwork Cards;
Paper: Creative Inc.
Supplies: all flowers from Wild Orchid Crafts decorated wtih Stickles; pearls from The Hobby House; gems from my stash;
Tools: MS "Eyelet Lace" PATP punch; Cuttlebug "Hippie Chick" die cut numbers.

Joey, hope you have a lovely day!
