Engagement cards

 I made these recently...just felt like making some engagement cards for my 

ever-handy "box."

 I was inspired by a card I saw on Docrafts...

and made my own version. 

I drew a hand shaped template and chalked round the edge

to get the hand-print shape, added a large gem and a little gold promarker -

for the ring - and a computer generated sentiment. 

Finished the edges with a bit of rounding on the corners.

I would like to add this into the following challenges...

CAS on Sunday - pastel pretties (ends 24th May)

The corrosive challenge - use a sentiment (ends may 26th May)

My craft spot - invitations and announcements (ends 22nd May)

Sarah Hurley challenge blog - shades of blue (ends 26th May)

Chalk n stock - use chalk (ends 31st May)

This is a dovecrafts paper that I found in my stash on a recent clear out.
It was not quite big enough of a piece, to cover a card, so was about to be resigned
to my "bits of paper box" when this card popped into my head!

I found loads of scraps I'd forgotten I had!  Lol...

I printed on a sentiment, added a thin (hand-tied-bow) ribbon,

and Bobs-your-uncle!   ;)
