laser cuts and WoW!!

I love these gorgeous laser cuts from Kobie's Hobbycutz shop - they are really good quality mdf laser cuts, and they smell gorgeous when they arrive (if you like the smell of wood, which I do!!).  You can stain or paint them as well as just use them as they come.  I sprayed the dotty flower with distress ink reinker and left it to dry.  The cardstock was embossed and I cut the banner out and layered it up.  The doily was scrunched to make it smaller and more posy like, and then I added the laser cut, and a pearl to its centre.  I added lace, ribbon, a bow and the cute laser cut butterfly, which I added pearls to.
