Sugar Bowl Challenge 6

I made this card a couple of days ago and I'm just getting the chance to post it now. It is for the Sugar Bowl Challenge 6 and I'm not sure if I really like it or not...... can't decide (the card not the sugar bowl challenge blog!!!)

I received the cute SN image in some candy and she is coloured with distress inks. The papers are Laura Ashley and I have embossed the centre panel with my d'vine swirl embossing folder.

I sponged the centre panel with embossing ink and I clear embossed it to give it a bit of a shine. I punched the flowers with my retro flower punch and I randomly stamped them with a studio K flourish stamp then embossed them with gold. I added some ribbon to the bottom corner of the image and paper pierced the opposite corner for a bit of added detail.

I'm going to finish off another card I have started tonight so I will post again tomorrow..... and I also have some exciting news to share with you all.

Supplies
Card/paper: Cream and pink card, Laura Ashley
Stamp: Sugar nellie
Colouring: Distress ink - tattered rose, worn lipstick, peeled paint, weathered wood, walnut stain and vintage photo
Embellishments: Pearls, jewels, clear and gold embossing powders, american crafts ribbon
Tools: Cuttlebug, nesties, d'vine swirl embossing folder, heat gun, water brush, retro flower punch, needle, ball tool
Thanks for looking x
