Bling it on with PDCC!

I recently acquired the gorgeous Glitter Ball set from Pie Lane!! Yes i also got the pretty holographic flutters which i plan to use soon :)

I have seen E.T using them a lot and i had similar ideas to create  some flourish using them. So i just used old style fevicol along the flourish, poured the gorgeous glitter like a powder and patiently aligned them along :) better ways of doing it are welcome. Not totally impressed but happy they look continuous as a design :)

This card is based on the PDC colours - Eggplant, Orange and Fuschia. And yep i did couple of new things here.... the background is done with my newly acquired Hero Arts and misting with Distress Inks.The flutters were sent by dear M which have been stamped with Hero arts Happy stamp and then distressed. This card is full of bling so i added some more rhinestones. It was a fun way to distract my flu filled head :( Hope i feel better soon....


Supplies: Elle Erre Fabriano, Inkadinkado Flourish Stamps, Fiskars Wish Quote sentiments stamp set, 
Hero Arts BG Stamp, Glitter Balls from Pie Lane, Ribbon From Stash

I did the insides too for a change





And yes there is a good news!! For the first time my card was selected in top 3 and that too in the ICR Challenge. Here is the card that made it to the top :)


Thanks for stopping by!!

Cheers
