DL.ART May Linky

Happy Monday and first day of May!! Wow, the year is flying by!! A new month means a new monthly linky at DL.ART. The theme is anything goes. If you use the code l01210, Diana will give you 10% off at the DLART shop.


I had a request for a sympathy card in the colors of blue and purple, so I put these two together. The papers are from Craft & You.


The doily is a Cheery Lynn French Pastry Doily. I cut it in half and offset it under the center panel. A Memory Box Adelaide Stem was adhered beneath the butterfly, a Fiskars punch.


This gorgeous crinkle ribbon is Lavender from the Spring Bundle #1.


And this is Baby Blue from the Baby Bundle.


 The beautiful flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts. Tucked beneath are Memory Box Tender Leaves and Chloe Stems.


The angel is from a mold.


I'm entering this in the following challenges:

1) Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge - Anything Goes
2) Word Art Wednesday - Anything Goes
3) Jo's Scrap Shack Funday Friday - Anything Goes


Now it's your turn!! Head on over to DL.ART to see the amazing projects my design team sisters have created for today's challenge!! Then link up your Anything Goes projects!! I can't wait to see what you create :)

The gentle butterflies, the gorgeous flowers, the delightful bows - all so beautiful - you are the queen of beautiful cards, you make me want to reach out and touch them my oh so talented friend!!

    This sweet card is sure to bring comfort. The soft florals are so pretty, and I love the look created by offsetting the halves of the doily. So glad you joined the challenge at Jo's Scrap Shack this week.

    I love looking at all the pictures of your cards where you focus on the details. i would have missed that cute cupid if I only glanced at your card, which I never do. Wonderful sentiment and gorgeous card.

    Hello sweetie
    The person who gets your sympathy card surey will immediately feel the love that went into the making of this masterpiece. I love the combination of purple and blue, especially for this occasion. Purple it the colour of the Crown Chakra and Blue the one of the Third Eye Chakra so it is a wonderful sign.
    xoxo, Ally

    Wow Lisa, this is one of my favourite colour combinations! It's so cool and refreshing yet still soft and feminine, gorgeous!! I love how you split the doily in half and then off centred both of the pieces, what a great way to create a natural flow to the design! Your flower arrangement and ribbon are just stunning! I love the wispy flower die cuts in the background, the beautiful butterfly looks like he's just floating over the flowers! Absolutely love the layers and the cheesecloth and the wonderful sentiment banner too! A plus my friend! hugs :)

    Oh wow, this is really gorgeous! I love the lush flowers and all the elements you included. Thank you for blessing us with your artwork here at Word Art Wednesday. Please join us again soon. Leaving you with the inspiration of the Scripture in Jeremiah 17:7 which says, “Blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord, whose trust is the Lord."
