How's this for sparkly glam? It began with the pink sock rescued from the Ulta ad in the news paper several weeks ago. The moment I saw it, I knew there was a cool card in the making. The background is a retro ornament ef from Cuttlebug. It was colored with Gelatos. The name was stamped onto the fun and the edge was trimmed out with black German scrap. The tiny silver bells were wired together and attached to the edge of the stocking. I sprinkled the fancy sparkles along the base of the sock and up the inside edge.
They really do shine and go nicely with the sequins in the photograph. There is crinkly pink paper shreds in the top to give the sock some dimension.
Thanks Cathy for encouraging us to bling it. And to all blingers out there, can't wait to see what you bring!

Susan, I just LOVE the way you think when you create, a talent I do not have! This is fantastic! Love the glitter, the background AND the colors! You have a natural talent to create what you think and feel. What a gift that is! Your style is your own and I LOVE it!

Ditto what Nancy said. I still remember you using a Beetroot stained napkin and turning it into a masterpiece. This card is fabulous Susan. I love all the bling and the Christmas bells.
