Working at last! and New Challenge Cards

Hi everyone
Well, hopefully pc all sorted now and internet will stay up and running! Okay, going to try and post a couple of cards, that I'm going to enter into challenges, on the last minute, but hey ho, I'm getting there.
Right, this card started with a cute digi-stamp from Di's Digi Downloads-"Fairy Daisy". Stamped onto white card, and coloured with Promarkers, with a bit of help from coloursoft. Cut out with Nestie, also next size in rainbow shimmer card, and then card blank in off-white card from Mandarin. Backing papers from Wild Rose Studio, matted onto card, then rainbow shimmer, then stripy paper and lace from stash. Centred the image, added foil to wings and daisy. Stamped and cut out tag (LOTV) mounted onto rainbow shimmer, and attached with tiny bow. Finished with flowers from WOC, tiny stars and a little glamour dust.

 This card has one of my favourite LOTV images on, "It's My Party!" Stamped and coloured with Promarkers, then cut out with scalloped nestie, then matted onto a plain oval. Cut out another shape in rainbow shimmer for mat, also two small ones to use later. Made pink pearlescent card from Centura Pearl, and then had a play about. Made a lattice effect background with woven paper strips, coloured with Distress Ink. Covered card with patterned paper from stash, with lattice on top, and lace strip (Border Carnivale die by Cheery Lyn)  Matted the image onto shaped mat, and attached to card. Made the rosette with a sizzix die, and coloured. Stamped sentiment (LOTV) and matted both onto shaped backgrounds. Finished with pink organza ribbon, tied in a bow, and attached a fairy charm with a pink hatpin. Finished with gems and pearls.
