Good morning to all my lovely friends and followers. Today sees the launch over at Crafty Ribbons Challenge of the latest challenge which this fortnight is Anything Goes always a very popular challenge with us crafters.

For my card I decided to use an All Dressed Up Stamp called Abi Ballerina I actually purchased this with a couple of other stamps then found you can download it from the Freebie page on the challenge blog !! Silly me but I don't mind really as I loved the image.

  13. Carole, this is breathtakingly beautiful and one of my new favorites from you. :o) I adore the ballerina and the gorgeous papers... everything is soft and dreamy. The hearts are so pretty and I love how one is centered with the large flower. Your trims and tags are equally lovely. Wonderfully done! :o)

    Hugs and blessings,
