Charming!

Hello again! I'm back with a card for the latest challenge at Lovely hAnglar or Sweet Magnolia and this fortnight we'd like to see a charm on your projects.


I brought out my go-to Autumn papers, the gorgeous "Shall We Have Coffee" collection from Maja Designs.  I coloured Tilda with DIs and sploshed a bit of Frantage here and there. I put some Crackle Glaze on the teapot and lots of glitter on the biscuits to look like icing sugar.  The cotton lace and velvet ribbon were left over from another card I made using these papers and as they go together so well, I decided to use this combination again.

The roses are from WOC and I added a teapot charm which I'm pretty sure I got from our fabby sponsor, the Ribbon Girl:


Lifelong crafters Mother and Daughter, Mary and Andrea were tired of having to buy full rolls of ribbon and lace when they only needed one metre.  Because they love ribbons and all things pretty, they decided to open their own online shop in 2010 and make small quantities of beautiful products easily available to all crafters. Mary owns the shop and runs it on a day to day basis as well as keeping the website updated while Andrea looks after the social side,  The Ribbon Girl Blog and the Design Team. They specialise in supplying small (or large) quantities of ribbon, twine, gorgeous vintage style lace and seam binding ribbon, tiny pom-pom and ric-rac trim, all sorts of buttons, fancy pins, a multitude of charms, pearl and crystal flourishes, wool felt squares, seasonal and unusual embellishments, mulberry flowers, sticky tape and accessories to card makers, crafters, scrapbookers and cake decorators. They stock only the best quality products and only offer for sale goods that they would personally buy and use themselves.
 
I do hope you can play along with us at LhoSM.  Do grab and cuppa and check out the cards my teamies have made - they are completely gorgeous!
 
Hugs,
