For these fabulous challenges~
This card is a one layer CAS card that was quite easy to execute. Wow. I would NOT have said that about 6 months ago! I used to dread one layer cards...but I digress! I highlighted the open words and parts of the images by water coloring Lucky Limeade ink and then I added a bit of bling the same color. After I did that, I thought it needed something a little extra, so I colored in the images with a clear glitter gel pen. Voila! And on we go...
Card two~

| Can you see the shimmer better in this picture? It's there...I promise! |
For these fabulous challenges~
I started by spraying my card base with gold glimmer mist...the homemade kind. You can't really tell. It's there! I sponged around my doily with pink ink, layered some papers and a fabulous panel using my favorite technique--stamped image, water colored patches, champagne homemade glimmer mist, dry embossing--and added a sentiment, some bling, a flower, and some pins. I love it! I think it turned out a lot better than I hoped! :)
Thanks for stopping by and taking a peek at my cards! I appreciate you and your kind words. Please come and join in these fabulous challenges! Happy stamping! :)

They're both gorgeous Mynnette, not sure which one is my favourite. Love the CAS style of the first and that stamp is fantastic. Also love the inkyness of the second one and love the pink, of course Karen x
Mynette, I SO hear you about exhaustion. And shopping! Glad you got some new goodies and I LOVE what you've done with them. I just can't seem to pull off a OLC that I'm happy with, so I'm always thrilled to see what others can do. Yours is FABULOUS! Wow - well done! Your pink card is more my style, so of course I like that one too.
Thanks for playing along at Dynamic Duo's!
Cheers, Karen
