Bling It On!


Midweek throwdown a little challenging this time = bling cards without glitter and flaky bright stuff that falls off the cards... A few weeks ago there was a wonderful tutorial using aluminum foil which definitely added some "pop" to the cards.

I had already cut some cute "girly" pink and lavendar floral paper for card fronts. I used my new favorite Sizzix die aka Tim Holtz Vintage Flowers to some more flowers in the same palette, popped on a flat jeweled bling that I colored with Copic RV19 (yes you can color on bling like this and let it dry...) and then used my favorite card bling tool, the Stardust Glitter Pen, to highlight the polka dots on the big flowers and outline the centers. "Pop goes the card!"
