Sparkle Galore - Paper Play DT Card

Good morning peeps,
It's beautiful here today, sunny and warm just how I like it.
Today is new challenge day at
and the challenge is
no prizes for guessing who set that one lol.

I really enjoyed making this card, it all came together quite quickly, well quick for me anyway once I'd decided which stamp to use lol. I have 7 new sets of hAnglars awaiting an inking and I love them all, don't forget you can now buy direct from hAnglar & stAnglar :)
Ingredients -
Papers - Magnolia
Flowers - Prima, Wild Orchid & stash
Lace - Melissa Frances & stash
Sentiment - Sentiments 4 You
Pearls - Blue Moon
Sparkle - crystal glamour dust & diamond stickles
Tools - MS PATP, Woodware mini butterfly punch, MS frond punch

My all time favourite sparkle is crystal glamour dust, it's such a fine glitter and super sparkly and as you've no doubt noticed I love it lol
I'm entering my card in the following challenges -
Sketch & Stash - fab sketch (loved this one, new items stamp & lace), Just Magnolia - make it lacy, Creative Card Crew - cute & girly, Crafty Creations - May flowers, Creative Inspirations - lace & pearls, Really Reasonable Ribbon - anything goes, Truly Scrumptious - anything goes, Kreative Stamp Friends - favourite colours, Lollipop - thank you, Pear Tree Designs - stamped image, Make It Monday - anything goes, A Spoon Full Of Sugar - anything goes, Craft Your Days Away - white + 1

I think I might go and sit in the garden and do some colouring today as I've a couple of  DT projects I need to catch up on, fingers crossed next week life will return to normal :)
Thanks for stopping by
