Try It Out Tuesday #2

The challenge this week for Susana's DT was to use any Dovecraft/Laura Ashley Paper on our card with only two other embellishments. We get extra credit if we use shimmerz!! LOL!
We'd love to have you join in the challenge, just leave us a comment on the Follow Your Heart Store Blog with a link to your creation. If you upload to SCS or PCP, use the keyword TIOT2.
Also don't forget to check out all the other DT members creations on the store blog as well!
And.....later in the week I will be doing our first tutorial!! And....there's lots more fun on the way!! Lots of fun products coming to Susana's store, including 3 mystery stamp lines....2 are brand new and fabulous!!!
Okay, onto my card for this week!! I had fun with this faerie ! Doesn't she just look like she's having so much fun? Since we were only allowed two embellishments I decided to give the card some dimension by stamping the flower twice and then cutting out one and put it on pop dots.
I was always a sucker for extra credit too so I also added touches of shimmerz to the flower.


Supplies:
card size: 5x5
stamps:
Riding the Breeze, TAC Just Smile-retired-on inside
paper: TAC ultrasmooth white cardstock,
Dovecraft Retro Floral, cardstock
ink: Memento Tuxedo Black, Palette Viridian Leaf, Palette Starry Night, Palette Iris
others: copics, prismacolors,
Pink Poinsettia Blingz Shimmerz, stardust stickles, Clear Copic Glitter Pen, sizzlit photo corner die, Oyster Bella Baubles

Love this Danni. The paper is to die for. If it wasn't for the fact that I have just spent a small fortune on stamps and pencils in the last week I'd go snag some. Guess I'll just have to drool over yours.
Beautiful, keep up the excellent work.

SO cute Danni! Great paper!! What pretty coloring too. I have to say, I love how you always decorate the insides of your cards. That is one thing I am sorely lacking but they look SO nice and coordinate, I am going to have to start.
