Sparkly Rhinestones.........

Good Afternoon!!!
I thought I would show off a card I made
with some of the beautiful rhinestones now
available at the shop!
They really add alot of sparkle to the card and I am
pleased with how it turned out!


I made a pattern out of the clear and blue and placed them
in the scrolls of the punch!  I think it is
such a pretty effect especially with a snowy card!

I know your all probably sick of the snow by now so sorry
for a snowy card. But I don't get any now where I moved
and I miss it!! (I know but I am not crazy LOL)

Thanks so much for stopping by and I hope
you all enjoy your day!

A little bit of Spring

I have a spring themed card today, just what I needed to cheer up these dull, dark days – I hate winter lol.I am not a yellow fan (unless it’s teamed with pink) but lately I seem to be using it quite a bit.

The remembered I had these beautiful daffodils from last spring so made the card around the flowers.  The other flowers I have used are cherry blossoms and 15mm roses.  Everything including the leaves were blasted with Iridescent Gold Glimmer Mist.

Enjoy your weekend
