Dilly Beans Challenge...Jewels and Glitter


This is my make for the current Dilly Beans Challenge
use Jewels and Glitter, I'm also going to include it as a second entry in the
 current challenge on Kerrie's Kraft Korner and in the Anonymous Stamps 'Colour Me Happy' Challenge.  For this Challenge I used digi from 
Dilly Beans: Jenn's heart framed, number 566, 
Spectrum Noir alcohol markers, pencil crayons, Creata mirror card and glitter, 
holographic glitter, self-adhesive gems, Create and Craft 
cardstock and die cut frame, a fine liner and craft card blank.



I've admired the Dilly Beans digis for a while, but had not got round 
to colouring and making a card from one before.  The photo's not great, but I decided 
to add purple gems to the eyes...it made sense at the time...


I love the little heart and wanted to embellish it a bit more, I used 
pinflair glue for glitter to draw the swirls before adding Creata fine glitter.

Thanks for reading my post and hope you like the card,

Laura.

Desdemona...




I used: Desdemona digi stamp, from The Stamping Chef, Spectrum 
Noir alcohol markers and a bit of pencil crayon (over the hair), 
Creata mirror card, design paper and glitter, a Marianne designs flourish 
die, pins and ribbon from my local haberdashery shop and 
some flower embellishments sent to me by my friend Tina Maree.

I am entering this card into the current TSC Recipes Challenge
entries have to include the 'Desdemona' digital stamp, 
which can be purchased from  The Stamping Chef website.

I'm also entering it into the current Creata Challenge
The theme for Challenge 11 is a colour inspiration image:
