Try It Out Tuesday #15

For this week's challenge we were to Bling It!! Use glitter, shimmerz, embossing powder or anything sparkly on your card & as much as possible!!
That's my kind of challenge!! Oh yeah!!
Be sure to check out Susana's store blog, Follow Your Heart, to see what the other design team members came up with! And also to see how you can play along with us!!
There are so many awesome stamps that Susana carries but I decided on an Anki Sweetheart, Julia with flowers. I used a sketch from SCS, SC224.
I couldn't get the shimmerz to show up very well but her entire dress is shimmery from the Opal shimmerz, then I also used the clear copic pen on the hearts, stickles on the flowers. It truly does sparkle and shimmer in real life!!


Supplies:
card size: 5 1/2 x 4 1/4
stamps: Julia with flowers, A muse essential ovals, TAC Great Greetings-retired-on inside, TAC Curls and Swirls-inside
paper: some that I've had forever,
ink: Memento Tuxedo Black, VersaMagic Wheat, Palette Violette, VersaMagic Spring Pansy
others: copics, opal shimmerz, stickles, clear copic glitter pen, metallic dew drops, CM fine tip pen,

Hi Danni!
This is lovely!!! I can see the sparkle in the close up....it's a shame that sparkle doesn't show up very well in the pictures, this was a great challenge for all of us who like bling, glitter, and sparkles!
Blessings, Maria

Cassie said...

she's so precious!! you mentioned the clear copic pen - the glitter one? have you ever used the spica glitter pen - the clear one? Just wondering how they compare?? Sometimes it seems like my clear spica one leaves a silver tint...

Bumbles and Fairy-Tales said...

Very, very cute! I love this lil image with her pigtails!
I also love the fact that you always make the insides of your cards too!
I sometimes forget and then have to hunt down what I used! LOL!
TFS! :*)

Justine said...

This is so adorable, I love how you put so much bling yet it doesn't look overly blinged out. Did that make sense? LOL I thought Of you the other day when I was creating a card and finishing the inside. I'll share it soon.
