My love for bling....

....never seems to end...the day I got my Pixie Dust glitter pack from Pie Lane, I wanted to sit and make a card...but that same day I had to travel...so well today I finished it...and even though its very cloudy, rainy and oh so chilly here (yes, my prayers have finally been answered !!)  I took some pics and immediately got around to sharing it..I'll try for a better pic soon!

This card is by no means my own..Its a CASE of a card I saw on the Hero Arts blog, but I loved the simplicity of it, and having just got my own set..had to play with it...and it gave me endless possibilities to glitter up!!

Yeah, I tend to yap a lot!!

But when it comes to glitter, I don't kid..I love it...and when I'd asked Srinanda of Pie Lane Studio for some Pixie dust glitter, they didn't disappoint me...I looove this glitter...just sparkly and yummy!!  (p.s. Sri, I think I have two same greens in the box :( }

And what helps in making this glitter adhere is my newest toy, Quickie glue pen, a big dry painting brush to dust off the excess glitter and 2-3 scratch papers...use the same paper to catch the glitter and you're likely to have contamination (that psycho glitter speak for you)

Supplies - DP from echo park, stamp set - Be happy  Hero arts, and sentiment - thoughtful messages  

glitter balls in maroon. 

I think the DP is splash or summer days from Echo park...getting old...(yeah birthday next month :D)
I paper pieced the entire flower and then applied glitter, one part at a time..tried to give a bit of shading in the leaves..and the stem is bronze glitter. I added a few butterflies, but they didn't seem to fit the card, so off they went (just in case you had to ask where my butterflies were!!)

So that's it..oh yeah! before I forget, I've updated my sale page with some stampin up stamp sets.

Echo park and new stamps

A little beachy theme and new stamps to use...

Papers- Cloud (summer days), waves (splash-EP), 

Stamps- Dolphin -Imaginisce, Turtle - hobby ideas, Sun & sentiment - Hero arts (Kiss from the sun)

Colored with bic-it markers,

Memento Tuxedo black ink, seed beads from stash, googly eyes-itsy bitsy, glossy accents on the turtle.

There's a lot of mixed products on this card...Papers from Echo park, Stamps from Imaginsce, hero arts and hobby ideas. The waves have been cut and popped up with two different sizes of foam tape...and the dolphin and turtle are popped up as well..

I don't know if you can see, but there is a black foam tape and a white one..the black is 2mm and the white is 5mm..just for dimension..

Till later
