A card with many uses!!



WOW the weekend goes so fast..only made three cards this afternoon, have a few more to make yet, will have to wait until tomorrow now...This one is for a few challenges and also for a DT call over at Penny black at Allsorts they wanted Glitter and Glitz,


I used the sketch over at Sketch Saturday to give me some inspiration. There is lots of glitter and glitz on here, used glitter card and embossed it with the Swiss dots folder, glitter on her wings and round her dress and on the flowers with added sparkle with some gems. sometimes all the glitz does not show up very well on the photo's. Hope you can see it!!


The ribbon is from Crafty Ribbons, which is adorable. Image is a penny black one called Fairy dust.


I have also paper pierced her little dress as the challenge at Allsorts this week is paper piercing.I have also included some little punched leaves, so i will be adding it to Cute card Thursdays challenge which is Tree-mendous..trees or leaves.


This will also be added for the challenge over on the Do Craft site for the penny black challenge , so you could say a card with many uses.


Glad you found the time to pop by, hugs carol.
