An elegant lady


Something a bit different from me tonight. I bought a set of Kanban stamps with 2 elegant ladies and some sentiments a couple of weeks ago and thought how well the images fit on a tall card. I used a different colour combo too of blue, black and white for a change. I found some black glitter in my stash which has never been used. Shame it doesn;t show up well on the photo. Cherry blossom from Wild Orchid, rose from Crafty Emma's Store, swirl by Sizzix.
