Featured Guest Designer for challenge 110 Shabby Chic

Hello and happy Friday!

 
******** 
  
Today the Fussy and Fancy girls
are happy to introduce
our very talented
Guest Designer

Katie K.

 
Here's a little about Katie: 

My name is Katie and I live in beautiful Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.
 
 I have been crafting for as long as I can remember.
I was introduced to stamping in 2008 and fell in love with
card making instantly.
  
I love shabby Chic and vintage style and would like to try
multi-media and grunge style this year.
 
Two years ago, I finally had enough confidence to start my own blog and it has been an incredible journey for me.
I have made some wonderful friends and learned so much from many paper crafters around the world. Your beautiful creations truly inspire me.  
 
I hope my art work can inspire you too.
I am very honored to guest design for Fussy and Fancy Friday Challenge.
 

*******
 
Katie has made a Gorgeous card
for our, Shabby Chic challenge.


 
 

Katie, Your
Birthday card is GORGEOUS!
 
You certainly have mastered the
Shabby Chic style!
 
We love the image with the lovely soft shades
of blue and pink that you coloured!
 
Just look at all of the beautiful
layers of lace!
 
The brown floral die cut going up the side
is so delicate and lovely.
 
The white scroll and lace ribbon make the
perfect setting for the pink ribbon rose.
So very pretty!
 
The pearl floral trim and the tiny butterflies
add the perfect feminine touches.
 
What a wonderful Birthday keepsake
you have created!
 
A Treasure to be sure!
