This is a see in real life kind of card! I tried and tried to get the glitter on the dotted background from the Wink of Stella brush to show up on my photo. All the textures from the watercolor paper, die cut and popped up tree and faux sewing really make this CAS card stand out too. You do not want to know how many pictures I took, but you all know what I am talking about...lol! Hope you enjoy and have fun using your imagination ;-0
