OSAAT # 52 ~ Use a Charm

Just managing to squeeze this card in for the challenge this week over at OSAAT which is to use a charm, (I hope the adapted old earring will count as my charm!)  This card came about because I had covered the card blank with the paper from Papermania Blueberry Hill to use for another card and then changed my mind! so the base was already then I picked up the DoCrafts Creativity magazine and it had an A6 die cut and paper pack freebie of 'Pampered Pets by Andrea Jayne and the blues and pinks matched up with the Blueberry Hill paper so it had to be done.  The funny thing is, is that I normally just keep the freebies of papers to one side and dont end up using them for absolutely ages!  So it was a novelty for me to be using them so quickly lol.  I had to colour the little ribbon roses with copics as they were white and needed some colour IRL they are not as orange looking as they are in the picture!  The little white flowers were a birthday gift in a bead pack for Ria when she was about 6 (she is now 14!) first time I've used them too!  I havent added a sentiment yet as not sure what or who I will be using the card for.



I would also like to enter this into the following challenges:
