I stamped the gorgeous dress from You're Lovely onto some papermania patterned white vellum and embossed with with white pearl EP. I brushed over some blue distress ink, spritzed it and buffed with a tissue so the white patterned showed through but gave a soft blue hue to the dress. I cut a nestie shape in white and embossed with text and mounted on a blue matt. I decided to make it a DL card so embossed another strip of white with dots for more texture, mounted it onto silver and rounded all the corners, adding a blue bow. The sentiment is from Big Day Additions and is perhaps my favourite ever sentiment set - those flourishes Clare designed are just TDF! I simply stamped it onto the same blue card as I used for the matt around the image and embossed it with fine detail white EP. I think it came out quite elegant in the end.
Looking forward to hopping around all the other blogs to see what new beginnings everyone else opted for.....
I'm also going to enter it into a new challenge I've found the Crafters Cafe Challenge which is a monthly challenge and this month they want pastel colours - well my soft blues are very pastel. http://crafterscafeblogchallenge.blogspot.co.uk/2012/04/challenge-3-spring-with-pastel-colors_18.html
