How in the world I managed to forget to include the challenge at Elisabeth Bell's World Challenge with this card is beyond me so I'm including it now. Shabby Chic, Distressing and lots of white.
Must have been half asleep when I posted.. So sorry all.
Happy Saturday and Weekend!

Happy Saturday and Weekend!
Welcome to my wonderful new followers that I haven't gotten around to visit yet, nor anyone else lately. I tell ya, life is just in the fast lane right now and I don't know how to slow it down.
Oh Geez, I hope you all never experience designer block.....LOL After 3 days of working on this card it's still not what I had visioned but I decided to go ahead and post it anyway. Far cry from posting as I had hoped but I did get 4 DT May cards done for CCAYR.
I've used the new Elisabeth Bell image that I won at the Digi Bell's March blog hop. Her name is Lil Lillian and I think she's almost as cute as my Lil Lilly. I've been wanting to use some of the new Memory Box, Cheery Lynn, and Poppy Stamp Dies I got a few weeks ago and just got around to it. Thanks to Selma for the inspiration for this card. I know I saw something similar awhile back on her blog. She does wonders with these gorgeous dies and making flowers, so if you haven't been to her blog drop in to see the beauty she has to share.
Inside of card
Haven't got my light box figured out yet so the quality of these pictures are not what I had hoped for but I'll get it figured out sooner or later. I've always said you are never too old to learn new things, but for sure, it's not as easy as it used to be.
I'm entering this card in the challenge at Elphine House - Pastels for Spring
Anything Goes - Anything Goes
Thanks so very much for stopping by and I hope to see you again soon.

Hi Carol. I really like how you created the window to look through to the inside of the card to see cute Lil Lillian. I love the way you used all the pretty dies. Have a wonderful weekend.
Hi dear friend!! It has been a while since I last popped in and blogged. We are now moved into our new home. There is just so much to do but I had to take a moment to pop in some of my dear friend's blogs. Missed you!
Love the design with the window and your soft coloring of the beautiful image.

Hi Carol, I don't know what you envisioned but this is one gorgeous card. I love the fence and window and what a gorgeous stamp!!
Hope you are having a great weekend.

She's a sweetie that's for sure! Sometimes it's hard to put the brakes on...just keep applying steady breaking pressure and eventually you'll get down to the speed you want! (I'll keep some fingers crossed for ya...it's def. hard to do!)

This is a very clever design Carol - you've used those dies brilliantly, and Lil Lillian is a real cutie!
I do hope your weather will be better than expected - take care and keep safe my friend.

Awesome cards Carol and you did a wonderful job with your new dies. I think Lil Lillian is adorable and you are right definitely not as cute as your Lil Lilly. Hugs ... Carole
Hi Carol!
Designers block!? Do tell!
I can't believe it!
Gorgeous card!
Almost as cute as your real Lilly!
Such a sweet card! I love the window, flower box and fencing on the front of the card, followed by the beautifully colored sweet image on the inside!
Carol you may have designers block but this card is so pretty! The little window and fence are a beautiful way to frame the cute image inside. Fantastic card my friend. Have a wonderful week.

Hi hun, what a beautiful card, love the soft pinks and what a lovely window box..know where you are coming from with photo's had a fight with my camera on my last card, just couldn't get the light right (I do have a daylight light as well, think my lamp is the wrong shape, so it sends out shadows where I don't want them lol!!) Hope you are having a good week:)
Biggest of hugs,
Marjorie
