Hell loads of work…

Hi people! The card that I have to show you today is based on the sketch from 2s4y. I am going to enter this card in a quite a few challenges.. cute card thrusday, charishma cards, stamp something, ooh-la-la creations and a couple more :P

This card screams HANDMADE! LOL

Took very long to make… you can see why… This blue paper is an internet download and even though it was a beautiful paper I had to play with it and make my life more difficult :P I used my ol’ pal..my embossing paste and drew over the designs on the paper… I tried to make it as thin as the design itself… and I think I succeeded. It looks so intricate you know… and my mum thought it was originally this way! I tried to be very neat :-D

This picture is taken against the light so you can have a better look. It is all very glittery as I sprinkled (literally turned over the glitter bottle) white holographic glitter on the embossing paste while it was wet. This means I had to draw a little and then sprinkle, draw, sprinkle- repeat! LOL Hence the little bumps in between. Took time. But I think the design looks wonderful… OK so who wants this paper?! :o)

Wow… I am just talking about the design and NOT the card! Well the design tops the card! LOL Anyway its one glittery card… even the embossed top is sparingly glittered.
I am not too sure if it is visible but the white ribbon has some holographic thread running through it… its exactly the same as the glitter.
