Sweet Pea Stamps Design Card Contest

Hi there!
Really? My second blogpost today? Yey! I've got one day off from work, and I've unpacked all my scrapstash so I just couldn't wait to start coloring images again!!! :)
This card, I've made for the Card Designing Superstar contest at the Sweet Pea Stamps blog. I've been using a stamp by Elaine Cox, named Miranda. I love this stamp, along with so many other of the Sweet Pea Stamps. I've already spent way to much money on their amazing stamps, but I just can't resist them! And they are so much fun coloring up :) Which actually tells me that I would LOOOVE to win a $50 gift voucher from their amazing store!! Ha ha! ;o)
For the ones that love the Elisabeth Bell arts: Sweet Pea Stamps have 9 EB design stamps in their store (I've got 3 but I want the 6 next too... lol )
This card also goes to this week's challenge at Flutter By Wednesday's, where they have an open challenge :)
Well, enough writing, here are some pictures:

Supplies
Size: 6" x 6"
Ink: Archival Ink Coffee, Distress Ink Walnut Stain
Papers: Basic Grey (?) Altered kraft carton. Brown carton from Ursus.  
Others: Adage ticket from Tim Holtz. White pearls are cut from a Say It in Pearls white swirl from Prima. Halfpearls from Kort og Godt. Wooden butterfly from Nille, paper butterfly from Karen Marie Klip. Laces and flowers unknown. Leaf gold.

Yikes, it pisses me off that I don't know the name of the dp's! They are so lovely! I always take good care of the paper producent and name, but now I just can't find it!!! :( I would love it if someone could tell me, I'm pretty sure that they're from Basic Grey....?!
Well well, now I have some beds to fix, we're having visitors this weekend - a mother and her 5 kids :) So we're going to be 8 kids and three adults in the house all weekend (I'm NOT washing the house until Sunday! lol )
Wishing you all a great weekend - and remember to take care of the ones you love!!!!

Hugs,
