As You Like It

Good Morning everyone,
It's time for another challenge at As You Like It. this fortnight the theme is...

Fully Fussy or Clean & Simple

Don't forget to tell us why!

I have used the fabulous Jasmine from Lili of the Valley for my card.

I love CAS cards and I also love my flower dies, so my cards tend to be inbetween cas and fully fussy.

I've coloured her with promarkers and copics, and the background papers are from First Edition. I've used a Hunkydory moonstone die for the trellis fence and a Die-namics flower die from Blueprints 14. I've also added die cut rose leaves from Joanna sheen.
