No Design Paper at Fab 'n' Funky

Good morning, there's a fun new challenge starting today over at Fab N Funky... the theme this week, chosen by our lovely Jools is 'No design paper', and we're sponsored this week by the fabulous Lacy Sunshine.
To make my card I used a cute image called Izzybella Boo's Button Flowers, available here. I printed her onto beige coloured card and coloured her with pencils, thought I'd give the copics a rest! The die cut flower was cut from the same card and again coloured with pencils and finished with a button and twine. Tiny tags are LOTV.
Thanks for visiting today, hope you'll have the time to pop over to Fab N Funky to see what my lovely teamies have created to inspire you...and hope you'll have time to play along this week.

Thanks for your lovely message Chris, totally cheered me up this morning. Had stressful and rubbish morning dealing with docs, so was feeling very low when I finished writing up my post last night. Very telling in my writing I see. But today is a new day, so will look again at my creation with fresh eyes. Love yours! I so should have gone the embossing route! It looks fabulous and you don't miss the patterned paper at all with the wonderful embossing. So sweet your wee image. Love the way you brought the button flower out of the image as the embellishment, worked a treat. (That bloom is so similar, very clever!) Gorgeous hun. Hugs, Wends x
