I used Mint Julep cardstock & ink plus Delicata Golden Glitz. Finished off with clear sequins. This is also my thank you card for Di who has run The Snippets Playground for 7 years. Darnell set up a secret blog hop for us to thank Di for all her work which includes buying & sending out prizes. I'll probably never meet Di in person, but she's one of those people I connected with right away. Now we have even more in common as Di recently became Mum to a totally adorable furball named Dudley. This is for you, sweet Di!
Thought you might also like to see a card I posted on Flickr for SSS Challenge #115. The theme is love, so I made a Valentine using SSS Mandala stencil with DI spun sugar & victorian velvet.
The sentiment from SSS Hello, Beautiful was silver embossed & I added silver splatters. I'm also entering Inkspirational.
Thanks so much for taking time to stop by. If your blog address is in your profile or comment, I will visit you.
