This week Ella at the Pink Elephant has a recipe for us ...One flower - three brads and one patterned paper.
My flower is again one of the beautiful flowers from the Elusive Images set 'Ruby Tuesday. This time I stamped the flower several times onto card and once onto the purple background paper. I coloured the images using promarkers, cut them out and layered them up.
I added some enormous jewelled diamonds that I bought recently at Poundland. There was 124 sticky backed diamonds for only £1 and unlike some expensive sticky gems they actually peeled off the sheet easily! Isn't that shop just brilliant?
My patterned paper has a very distressed look about it and I'm quite distressed myself that the butterfly design on it is not showing up too well in the photo. It was yet another rainy day in England - I'm just so glad we're having a heatwave this summer as the weather forecasters promised. Does anyone know when it's going to start?
Last but not least my three brads are in the bottom right corner.
Over the last few weeks we have been overwhelmed by the number of amazing entries at the Pink Elephant. I do hope this will be another bumper week of fabulous talent. Really looking forward to seeing everyone's work.

Oh Ann .. So love your design. The flower is totally goregous, as are the papers and embellishments you used. Such a lovely layout/colours/design :-)
Good luck Irene with the specs. I wonder what bargains you will return with from Poundland?
