I made this card with my parents in mind. They'll be celebrating their 40th Anniversary! I used 3 challenges to spark my mojo. Moxie Fab World: All that Glitters is Gold, using a sketch from CAS(E) this Sketch and colors by Runway Inspired Challenge
These are some hand colored embellies that started off white. The top pic is a pearlized white butterfly stick pin (removed the pin) and colored with copic and embellished with bling! The second pic is a prima flower dipped in Danube Blue ink and Delicata Golden Glitz ink.
And the card...
Stamps of Life Swirls2Build, Hero Arts CL342 (sentiment), gold rhinestones, Memento Ink in Danube Blue, Delicata Golden Glitz ink, clear embossing powder
Kept it pretty simple with a gold card based and vellum overlay with some navy blue and gold sheer ribbon.
The sketch and inspiration photo...
All right now I reeeeeeally have to go pack. Mahalo for stopping by! I'll definitely be sharing some pics of Scrapfest so stay tuned!
Love the blues and the sparkly effects... I'm sure your Mom & Dad will be so proud to receive this card you made for them... It will be in their keepsake box for many years to come....
