Ai-yi-yi......I have taken at LEAST 6 pics of this card and I just cannot get it to photograph it to show all of the sparkle and the true colors! So, take a good look at the fuzzy card......then close your eyes and picture glittery, sparkly outlines of the roses and glittery, sparkly sentiment. There now......doesn't it really look pretty???? :P
I used my new (to me) Manhattan sizzix ef.......BTW...I LOVE THIS!!!! WOW! The cs is Co-ordinations that I sanded the outline of the roses and then used a pink gel glitter pen to add the sparkle. I tore the top edge of the cs. I heat embossed the senti with pink ep, but it didn't show up real well, so I used the same pink gel glitter pen on it to brighten it up. I added the pink gems to complete the look. I switched the big top right gem and the smaller gem underneath it to give it a better balanced look.
What do you think?

Hey, congratz, Lesley on being QTFD!!!! Love your new avatar. ;)
This card is so pretty, and I know what you mean about not getting a good shot of the sparkle. It's either too glaring, or too matte. But I can picture how soft and sparkly this is, and I think it is lovely.
