Whiff Of Joy (68) - Sketch
Ooh La La (49) - Anything Goes

Well, this was going to be a gatefold card. Having cut and folded the card, cut the backing card and punched the borders, when I placed the image over the top you couldn't see the punched borders for toffees!!! So, I had to start all over again. Never mind, the original card will just have to have another image put on it sometime.

I was dying to play with these new stamps I found at the Make It show at Farnborough last week, I have wanted them for a long time and nearly missed them as I spotted them five minutes before leaving the show, talk about lucky! I also got some cosmic shimmers from the fabulous Glitter Girls who were kind enough to show me how to use them. I have used these to colour the dress and some glitter glue on the veil. The rest of the image has been coloured with my pencils. The cardstock is all pearl card except the bits that were stamped on. I finished the card off with a few flowers, punched leaves and a few pearly bits and pieces. Hope you like it.
