This is one very late card for the Twisted Sister Challenge this week - where we were to stamp on metal! Well I didn't...long story...bad day...say no more!!! So I thought rather than do nothing I would make a card with metal on it and as usual the family were keen to help and ate the crossiants that were on the aluminium tray...we then washed it and I ran it through the Cuttlebug - I love the look of it and use it fairly regularly - so sorry Sistah's...I had to be slack on this one....but at least I played!!!
I used the Sketch from the CCEEC, I had fun with this one - There are many challenges that I love doing but I think the Sketch Challenges would have to be a BIG favourite - I love the different ideas that everyone has! These gals were coloured with Chalks and a blender pen, I then added Kindy Glitz to the glass of 'bubbly' and also some silver touches on the jewelley and spotted dress - I am not sure it shows up much in the photo - you know how it is with BLING!!
I am on another run of humerous cards as I have had another request for some....so I will be doing as many different things as I can with them this week - I am learning and making 4 at a time but breaking it up by using 2 different themes - it mentally helps me get through bulk orders!
The gorgeous buttons were given to me during the week, along with many others - these ones are my favourites....buttons can make the best embellishments - I love to hunt through the bins of them at the Thrift shops....always good for something different!

Great idea Linda, to use that tray and cb it!! Gorgeous results!! I love the buttons too! I am a button hunter too...I love to find the antique ones, but i never use them on my cards!
