They have so many holidays!

So i am here with my card for the new Elphine House Australia Challenge!
The challenge theme is ...

This was a easy one since all the EHA stamps are cute but i thought a lovely girly princess card was on the cards!

I decided to make a round card this time. I have been trying to make use of my Cricut Expression lately and i have done well. I almost use it on every card in some way or other. For this card i used the Wild Card Cartrige to cut the 6 inch card base and the heart cluster.

Other materials are...
Papers - My minds eye
Dies - Memory Box butterfly delights, Vivienne Butterfly, Marianne Design Fancy Tag and spellbinders scallop and classic circles.
Embellishments -- Flowers from wild Orchid Craft, Ribbon and Lace from Hobbycraft. I made the gem & pearl cluster myself  using loose gems and pearl beads from my stash.

Here is a closer picture of "Sophie on Timber Throne"


I am going to enter the following challenges - 
Anything Goes Challenge - In the garden with butterflies
Creative Craft Challenge - Use Ribbon (i used a ribbon on the bow)
