A little DIY for Grace

Hi Everyone, sorry been missing all week, I have struggled with Mojo in amongst other things. We have been trying to lay some patio stones and I think I am just getting too old to hump heavy things around any more. Today I can hardly move for my ribcage and Hip complaining big time.... Old age or what!! I don't know but I am getting a real weakling....lol Serves me right Hubby kept telling me to leave things and I insisted on helping....Doh!!
Well onto a little more DIY of a kind and in a must nicer way, I decided I was a little tired of my doilies and as I don't have a Doily Die : (  I decided to make my own with a MS punch :)
The card is for the Sugar Bowl  Marlena's Sketch challenge which is a sketch by Marlene. I thought it was such a lovely Sketch I decided to keep it as it was and not twist or turn it around.( what I really mean is I made sure not to stick it on the wrong way....lol   I used this adorable image "Grace" and added Wild Orchid Flowers and Pearls to embellish. The Turquoise DP is from DCWV Nusery and the Pink is "Fluer" from the Lauren Making Memories both were mounted on textured  cardstock.
Well off to have my long soak and a painkiller and hopefully I will be more mobile tomorrow. I will try and catch up with you all very very soon.
Other challenges I am entering are....
Card Makin Mamas...Digi Challenge 28
Fun with Shapes and More.. ..What you want
Jellypark friends Friday challenge... get punch
Stamp Something ..September Digi Day                                  
Huge Hugs to you all xx
