DYSU #67 - Bling/Glitter

Morning all, today brings us a new challenge from DYSU, and this week we would like to see your projects with some...



..Glitter or Bling! Yep, crack open those neglected bottle of glitter, Stickles, and packs of gems and go for the glow!

I have made a card using both glitter and gems, I love the bling, so this card was as easy as peas for me to do!



I've used the delightful Summer Angel image from Lili of the Valley, and coloured her in using Promarkers.


I've added some Glamour dust to her wings for that all important sparkle!



I cut her out using a Nestie oval, and then layered onto a pink doily mat cut using a beautiful die from Cheery Lynn, Polynesian Sails. Such a gorgeous die cut.




The backing paper is from Kaisercraft, and the pink lace and pink velvet ribbon underneath the die cut are from The Ribbon reel, as is the Ivory button twine bow.

I added some Tiny Tags from PTI for a little sentiment, and finished off with lots of gems around the die cut.

Here are our generous sponsors for this week:
