Delicious Doodles Challenge # Bling, Shimmer, Sparkle & Shine

Yep it's that time again over at Delicious Doodles and this week it's a nice easy challenge - sparkle, shimmer, shine and bling! The prize is any five digis from the Delicious Doodles Shop. The DT have created some gorgeous projects for your inspiration, so please stop by and have a peek.

Just a reminder that I have a followers blog candy running at the moment and all you have to do is enter your name in Mr Linky to be eligible. Oh and don't forget that Sweet Pea Stampers currently have a DT call here.

Right onto my card! I loved this challenge, cos as you know most of my cards and projects have plenty of sparkle and shine and this card is no exception! I'm afraid my photos don't really show all the sparkle and shimmer as the light here today is dreadful - sorry.

I decided to keep this card nice and simple with a minimum number of embellishments as I really wanted to show of the gorgeous Fairy Flora Prima Paper and the beautiful fairy image. I've coloured the fairy with Promarkers, cut her out and then covered her dress with Sakura Gel Pen, added a gem and stickled her wings. I've used silicone glue to mount her onto the card. The flowers on the paper have been glittered.



The butterflies have been punched using my Martha Stewart 3 in 1 Butterfly Punch. I've then covered them with Stardust Stickles and added tiny little gems. I've then added a trail using a pink sakura glitter gel pen.


Thanks for stopping by today, I'll be back tomorrow with another card.
