Coffee and Cream

This is my second week as a guest designer for Papertake Weekly.  Today's challenge is to use lots of shapes, at least 3 different shapes, one of which can be your card base.  This gave me a chance to do one of my fave shapes, and also a Magnolia image, which I don't usually get chance to use normally.  I also followed a Coffee and Cream theme (although this sounded easier than it actually was!)

Here's my card :


I've also decorated the inside as I was rather pleased with the front (even if I do say so myself !)
[sorry this second photo is slightly blurred, but I only realised that when I edited it, so please don't think you need a trip to Specsavers !!!]



Card Recipe:
I hope to see you all join in the challenge, and please pop over to the Papertake Weekly Challenge Blog to see the other fab designs by the DT members, and join in the Shape Up challenge this week.

I've been inspired by :
Happy crafting
