This weeks TLC479 Pillow Top Technique is a MUST DO!!! Really fun with a really pretty effect. I definitely will be trying again. Thanks again Sabrina for sharing your wonderful tutorial too.
My 2nd Challenge is the CAS on Sunday Challenge #32 "Sparkle and Shimmer". Spritzing my die cut butterfly and Pillow Top layer really makes my card shimmer. I wish the photo showed the shimmer better. Very pretty IRL.

Beautiful card, love the bg done like that, there are so many pretty ideas out there for backgrounds, we don't need all that fancy stuff, do we! I am joking, lol, I checked out the tutorial and it is easy and I have some of that firmer plastic sheets that came from backing on clear stamps that would work perfectly, I never throw anything away. Anyway, great card and TFS.

Spritzing has indeed added a wonderful look to this - it's one of those cards that I'd love to see in real life because I know all too well how hard it is to show shimmer off in a photo! Great idea to use that on the pillow-top after all the sponging. I'm glad you enjoyed trying it out .

Hmmm, sounds interesting. It certainly made a pretty background! I love the soft diagonal plaid look to it. Bet that butterfly is pretty IRL with the shimmer. It is so hard to show shimmer and sparkle effectively in a photo, but I can just imagine... Pretty butterfly die cut, too, by the way!

Nancy, this is gorgeous! Love the colors, design, and butterfly. If it is shimmery then that is just icing on the cake. Hugz!
