It's A Jolly Holiday With Flora the Cyclist

Hi there!

Hope you're having a nice day!

Here's a card I've made in gorgeous Aqua tones again (my favourite!!) and I've picked this stamp for Papertake Weeklys theme of 'Its A Jolly Holiday' as this is definetely what I like doing on holiday! Out cycling in the sunshine looking at beautiful scenery!
That line makes me think of the song Jolly Holiday in Mary Popins! Hehe
I'm sure most people will be going with the beach or Christmas theme!

Here's my card:





I used:

Stamping Bella Uptown Girls - Flora the Cyclist Stamp
Promarkers
LOTV Scroll Sentiment Stamp
Background paper is Fancy Pants Love Story
The 2 Pink Floral papers are Pink Petticoat Vintage Rose Collection

Aqua Wild Rose, Pastel Green Cherry Blossoms, Aqua 20mm open Roses, 15mm white open roses, 4mm Pastel Rose Buds all from WOC

Ivory Jute, Aqua Satin Ribbon and 6mm pearls from The Ribbon Girl

Woodware butterfly punches
Crafty Ribbons 3mm Aqua Ribbon
White doily and charm from my stash




Thanks for looking!

Lucy

    What a pretty card! Thanks for your lovely comment on my Ladybug card, I used pencils for most of it but I don't have any skin colour pencils so used my copics for the skin and then added a bit more depth with a brown pencil and the hair and dress were just pencils, hope that helps xx
