Sending hugs......

Hiya everyone,

As I had a spare five minutes I thought I'd share the 3rd and final card entry into the Card Designer of the Year competition that I was runner up in (Simply cards and papercraft magazine).

The papers are from the Prima "birdsong" paperstack.  I decided against a stamped image so apart from a few dies and a stamping up notebook punch I only used the paperstack.  I made the envelope from cream vellum by first pulling apart a small envelope to use as a template.  It looked far nicer in the flesh but I suppose most cards do don't they?
I will enter this card into the following challenges:-

Tip top tuesdayLavishly lucious layers
Inky chicks - BINGO (Ribbon, sentiment,flowers)
Crafty bloggers network - Flowers 
Kaboodle doodles - Ribbon 
Make it monday - Always anything goes 
Unstampabelles - Use one or more dies 
Speedy and friends - Use twine  
Catch the bug - BINGO (Twine, ribbon, starts with a "P" so punch) 
Sugar creek hollow - TIC TAC TOE - Bling, ribbon, diecuts
Inspire me friday - Anything goes

Thanks for looking!
