Friends

I coloured this beautiful LOTV image a few weeks ago just because I love it so much and then yesterday I stumbled across their challenge blog  and was inspired by the sketch and dashed off to make it into a card. I turned it into a Friends card as one of my friends has been very much in my thoughts this week as her daughter is out in Japan about 60 miles from the reactor plant. She has spent most of the week trying to get her safely home and hopefully by Thursday she will be able to sleep again.
The papers I used are from the new Moulin Rouge collection from Prima which I got from the Happy Daze website and I made the turquoise flowers with a free stamp from Craft Stamper magazine. The larger lilac flower is one I made which I am really pleased with, I need to make some more!
I would like to enter the following challenges;
