Elegant ..... Bella Toile

It's my daughter's gym coach's birthday today and Lauren bought her some lovely smellies as a present. Unfortunately, they were huge .... so packaging them up was a bit of a challenge!

This card and box set was inspired by several black/white variations I have seen since the wonderful Bella Toile background stamp was released last October. The first one I saw was Jo's and more recently Monica's .... both absolutely gorgeous. This is my version :o)

This card was inspired by one created by the lovely Sara .... this is hers here .... I was originally going to C.A.S.E Sara's, but it didn't quite turn out that way, I think I got sidetracked :o)
