Hanging Basket for Mum

More from my rather large collection of Imagination Crafts stamps, this time it's this pretty hanging basket design, which I've coloured with Promarkers.
 I've used a Craftwork Cards shaped blank and layered up with Dovecraft Back to Basics IV papers and a doily.  The sentiment was stamped with a Papermania stamp.
The ivy was made with a Joanna Sheen Signature die, which was a Christmas present from a crafty friend; it cuts beautifully, even although the stems and tendrils are very fine, and I love how it embosses the veins.
To finish off, I added coloured pearls to the flower centres and to the sentiment panel, and yellow gems to pick out the shape of the card blank.
I'm entering this card in the following challenges -
Feeling Crafty - #25 - Dies / Punches
Sparkles - #52 - Show Us Your New Stash - New stamp, papers and die
Simply Create Too - #54 - Mother's Day / Female
Sister Act - #43 - Anything Goes
