Crafty Ann's Challenge #39 - Fancy Folds

Well we certainly had a busy fortnight looking at your lovely creations.  I am glad I don't have to pick the Top 3 this time.  The challenge this fortnight is "fancy folds".
For my card I used one of Crafty Ann's new digital images called Morning Glory.  I coloured the image and the extra flowers with Promarkers and added glossy accents and yellow seed beads to the centre of the flowers.  The main image I cut with my tearing ruler and distresses the edges.  I used a pre-made fancy fold card I had and used two of Crafty Ann's abstract papers in yellow and bright pink.  The card is finished off with some peel-off sentiments and stitch peel-offs in all the corners (but they've not shown up well on the photo as most of it is transparent).  

Click here to go and visit the Crafty Ann's Challenge Blog so you can see the wonderful creations from the Design Team.

I am also entering this card into the following challenges:

Birthday Sundaes - Anything goes
Kaboodle Doodle - Thoughts of spring/Easter
Cupcake Craft - Lots of layers
Top Tip Tuesday - Open theme
Scrap-Creations - Create with digital images
I Love Promarkers - Anything goes
Pixie Dust - Spring forward
Ai Factory - Flowers in bloom
Shelly's Images - Show us what you got
CRAFT - Flowers

Delicious Doodles - Anything goes
Fussy and Fancy Friday - Springtime
Alphabet Challenge - Y is for yellow (the backing paper and the criss-cross colouring are all in bright yellow although my photo makes them look totally different.  I thought bright pink and bright yellow would make a bright and cheerful spring-like combination)
