Bling It!

Wow!  That week has gone so quickly, it's time to show you my second DT card for The Whoopsi Daisy Challenge.  This week we have the theme ‘BLING IT’, we want to see everything sparkle and shine.

I chose to use this fab image from sheet 202, don't forget there are four lovely images on each sheet.



There is glitter on the flowers, gems in the corners and her shoes are glazed, none of which show up particularly well in the photo unfortunately.

I coloured the image with ProMarkers, I tried to colour the stockings black to start with but they ended up looking more like woolly tights, than sexy stockings, so I started again and used grey instead of black.

The card base and mats are all black card stock, the image, panel, corners, border and leaves were cut with Spellbinders dies and I made the large flowers by taking apart some old blooms from my stash, colouring them with a black ProMarker, adding glitter to the edges and layering them back up making them bigger.  Full details of everything I have used are listed below.

I have decorated this inside of my card quite simply, I thought there was probably sufficient detail on the front.
