Good morning peeps,
I've lots going on today, appointments to get to and more birthday presents to buy, oh for a nice quiet day in my craft room.
Today is new challenge day at
this weeks challenge is
My lovely teamies and I are showcasing Tattered Angels products this week & as always if you have them we'd love to see them but it's not compulsory to enter the challenge, any sparkle & shine is welcome.
For anyone interested I recently did a little tutorial showing tips for making that lovely sparkle show up in photographs, if you want to take a peek it can be found HERE
'This little card is a commissioned card & to be honest I'm not happy with it but with life the way it is at the moment I'm not sure I'll be able to find time to make a replacement. I wish I'd used a satin ribbon on it, I'm sure I'd like it more if I had, but hey ho can't love 'em all lol.
Ingredients -
Image - Whiff Of Joy
Medium - distressed inks
Papers - Websters Pages
Sparkle - Dazzling Diamonds glimmer mist & stardust stickles
Pearls - Blue Moon
Flowers - Prima
In the close up piccy you can really see the gorgeous sheen and sparkle from the glimmer mist. I love these CC Designs butterfly dies, you will be seeing these often, and I think I "need" the balloon dies too lol.
As always our lovely Heidi is sponsoring this challenge with a whopping $50 in store spending spree.
The new Magnolia Sweet Rainbow Collection is available to pre order in store, go check them out as always they are adorable
