Six Ways With Lace..No.6

Happy Saturday Blog Friends!
Do we all agree Saturday is the best day of the week??
Here is my final lace technique card, I do hope you've enjoyed the various lace methods.
This time I've pleated/gathered some gorgeous cream lace behind the die cut, 
the corners were a little tricky but it was worth persevering!
I also like the combination of green and cream but, not a single butterfly in sight - what happened??
I'm sure they will fly back soon.
Bella will pick out a winner of the Spring watercolour card today and I will post that tomorrow.
I am also locking myself away in my craft room to work on my final submission for the Spellbinders Design Team..that has to be entered soon and then I will be a bit of a nervous bundle waiting to hear...
Take care friends and enjoy your day.

Good (early) morning Christine,
I really, really like todays card Christine. This is a lovely shade of green and the ivory lace is a perfect accompaniment in both colour and texture.
No.6 in your 'six ways with lace' is definitely my favourite, alongside layered & frilly No.2, as it really emphasises the focal point beautifully.
I have one error to correct though; I am certain I can spot butterflies all over the card today... LOL!!!
Have a fab day. Regards Linda

Good luck anyway though. The card is lovely today - love all your cards but I think yesterday's was MY personal fav.
Happy crafting - just going to do some myself.

Loving the card today Christine and sorry that the lace theme is coming to an end! So many great ideas! The lace on today's card looks like crochet so gives it a vintage look also.
Looking forward to what is coming next! Have a great weekend!

Great card, loved viewing this week, has really helped to see lace other than a strip across the card, good luck with your SB submission.

So looked for your blog! What beautiful cards! Butterflies hold a special place in my heart, and your beautiful cards are inspirational and fabulous! I have just thrown my old nets away, blast! How beautiful you made them look! The last card is delightful

Very pretty card! I like it that it is so simple yet very elegant. Maybe a butterfly will land on a card that I make....
