This gallery of jaydekay's is marvelous! Was hard to choose, but I cased her Pretty in Pink card.
I stamped the same image in Stazon on some special 2-sided glossy paper from Netherlands (similar to SU's glossy, only doubly thick), and used Teykol (Thanks, Kim/luvflowers, and her friend, Christiana/Opthamologist) for the idea - Basically, masks area like crayon technique, only with liquid. Teykol also from Netherlands. Not sure if/what is comparable here in the US.
Anyway, once Teykol was dry, I took Pacific Pointe and bordering blue and sponged over the entire surface, then stamped in black a flourish image randomly. This was matted on pacific pointe. Base is pacific point with SU's brushed silver that was pierced at top & bottom.
Image panel was bumped up on dimensionals.
Finished off with faux pearls and white satiny ribbon at the corner.
Thanks for looking.

Oh Collette, this is beautiful!!!! What a great image to use the teykol with. Your dress looks so elegant. I love the silk ribbon and the added flourishes.
