Lacy Embossed card

Reading is something that is relatively strong in my family.  I have always loved to read but struggle now to read for long because of my eyesight.  However, both of my teenagers can often be found reading a book.  This image was just wonderful to work with.

The card is for the following challenges:
A Day for Daisies - Something Lace-y

Kaboodle Doodles - Ribbon + button

I have used an embossing folder called Drink Me from Couture Creations together with some textured cardstock from DCWV to create the background for this card.  I have combined some lace and ribbon together.  The button added is one from my Mum's button box.  It had a shank on the back of it which my Dad removed for me so it would sit flat.  The image is the one supplied for the challenge at A Day for Daisies and can be found by following the link above.  The copic markers that I have used are YR02, YR00, YR31, E00, E11,Y00.
