2 CHALLENGES IN 1.....SPOONFUL OF SUGAR and SKETCH SATURDAY #22




Another card today combining 2 challenges....Spoonful Of Sugar this week is "Sparkle and Bling",i think my card just about covers that...lol and i've used the sketch from Sketch Saturday #22.
The stamp is by Woodware "Bubble Tree",which i have stamped with Versamark and then heat embossed with "Vanilla Ice" embossing powder,i've randomly adhered flat backed pearls and gems of various sizes to the circles which form the tree.Cut out using nesties and mounted onto dimensional tape.
The silver glitter card is from Hobby Craft,well actually it's self adhesive film,3 sheets for 99p which i have mounted onto card,it's gorgeous,there's no glitter coming off because it's coated and feels smooth,love it,i had 4 different colours,i must get some more....
The sticky backed lace ribbon is from Cuddly Buddly and the merry Christmas ribbon is Anita's.
I've punched a few snowflakes out of the glitter card too with my xcut and dovecraft punches.
