Hi! This card was made for today's Sketch Challenge.
I have a secret...I HATE GLITTER! No, I don't hate it on OTHER people's cards...Just USING it freaks me out...While I was making this card, Speedy the Cat decided to jump onto my lap and placed his paw onto the edge of the glitter tray. Guess what he and I are covered in? Yep...Glitter-o-rama! We look like we're headed to a 70's Disco to sub as one of those freaky Disco Balls! BELIEVE me...I'm trying to use masking tape to get it off Speedy the Cat, as I KNOW it is not healthy for him to have it on his fur....Me??? I'll take 3 showers, and STILL have it...It will be on my pillow, my sheets, my jacket...You get the idea, right? What's worse? You can't even SEE the glitter on her wings in the photo! GRRRRR! LOL!
The image was stamped twice and both images colored with Copic Markers and cut out. They were layered with foam tape. The flourishes are Sizzix die cuts.

I'm going to have to get some of those 'copic markers'... your cards are always so vibrant!! Between that, and the entertaining stories, it's no wonder I always search for your cards first!! Thanks for sharing!

Tee Hee! Love the glitter story. I can just picture Speedy the Cat and you all shiny. Too funny. BUT, even in all your mess, you produced one heck of a card. So very pretty! TFS :0)
