Other flowers, A3 pink card, white pearlised card, gems, pearls and peel offs - From my stash

First of all took an A3 pink card and to make into a concertina card, I scored at 14cm intervals using my 'Hougie' board. Folding, then cutting at 14cm making two tiga halaman cards. I joined together creating a lima laman card. I cut the white pearlised card 5 times using Sue Wilson die, applying them to the pages. For the front I added flowers, banners etc. I printed, coloured and cut out the four images, edged with mica powder, then layered onto the remaining pages. I finished off by decorating with flowers, brads and gems.
