I wanted to play along and went for my large paper doilies, then remembered that I have a bunch of Martha Stewart doilies left from my flirtation with Christine Middlecamps inspiration (you can see versions HERE, HERE, HERE, HERE, and HERE). Then, I remembered that I actually had a doily all decorated up waiting to be put on a card (if you visit often you have already seen it but now you get to see it on a card). A bit of a 'cheat' perhaps but you all know how I am trying to use up all the stuff in my scrap bins and half finished item bin.
So, I grabbed some lovely K&Co. designer paper, stitched around the edge and inked it up. Then I added the white grosgrain ribbon (from my friend Jessica G - thanks Jessica!!). Finished off the easy card with this pre-made embellishment. See that butterfly ... it's an iron-on ... you know, those things you iron on to your jeans. Sentiment if from Mixed Messages (Papertrey Ink). I took a photo from the side so you can see how layered the embellishment is. Now, off to see what all the Loonie ladies did with doilies (not Dollies Wendy!):
Thanks for dropping in. Now we are off for a Friday night supper.

Donela, the MS doilies looks really great. I´ve never seen them in Germany :-( Your card looks great- i like the colors and the DP.

Awesome card. Loved the design, the details on the card. That patterned paper is so beautiful as well.
I love the colors you have worked in here. Very serene
Awesome doily collage! Thanks for providing the side view -- it's a great way for me to visualize all the gorgeous layers!!
Gorgeous, loving the doily.
Wow, this rocks, Donelda! You really know how to "throw" it all together! It has wonderful texture!
