Glittery fairies and wings and fings!

Got my mitts on a beautiful sweet pea stamp to use as I was looking for something special to make into a 40th birthday card for a friend who likes pink and purple and sparkly things so it looked to be just the ticket. Gave me a chance to put my shiny new promarkers and my fave gelly roll pens to good use. To make sure the sparkle shows when it is put up with the other cards on my friend's big day, I made it into an easel card (my first one) :-D


Quite difficult to catch the sparkles right under artificial light and camera flash but I think you can see them ok on the photo above. Got to wait a few weeks now before I can give it to it's intended recipient...
