A Lovely Cross

Hello Again,
This was my first attempt at doing the Baptism card and I just wasn’t sure about it. It is more suitable I think for a sympathy card. As I haven’t decided yet I’ve left the sentiment off.

I did see one similar to this in my travels and the design kinda stuck in my head, so if it was yours – thank you Smile

I have layered the cross and the dp on the same colour card. The top layer of the cross is embossed with the SU embossing folder. A gorgeous little paper flower that I picked up from Kaiser was attached along with some lace ribbon along the bottom. The whole thing is then spritzed with some home-made glimmer mist ( a mixture of distress ink, water and perfect pearls).
 I concentrated on colouring the flower and then spritzed the whole card lightly to give it a speckled shine. 
The whole effect is lovely with the different shades of blue.

I will share this in the following challenges:-


Glad to share it with you :)
