So this is my card
I designed the papers on the computer using the colours from the inspiration photo but also using the themes from the photo (flowers, swirls and stripes). The papers don’t show up too well here but the backing paper is light with a light pink flourish pattern, the horizontal is pink flowers on white and the vertical is black, white and pink stripe.
The edges of the card were coloured with pink alcohol ink and perfect pearrlised!
I chose my LOTV stamp as she is holding flowers and also used a LOTV sentiment. I decided to only use shades of pink to colour her and I created the background and sentiment background using distress ink and perfect pearls.

The photo isn’t great but my camera ran out of battery after taking this so it will have to do! The let it snow papers have been sprayed with sparkle. They are also on foam pads as is the penguin so this isn’t as flat as it looks!! The blue circle was sprinkled with gitter and flowersoft. The penguin was coloured with Promarkers and I used stickles on the snow.
