Bling day challenge

"Use BLING and Christmasy/Wintery paper to create a card." Now for some reason I alsways think of red and gold based papers when I think of Christmas although I have been known to use most colours and non specific papers too.

The poinsettia was stamped twice, coloured with Sakura pens and decoupaged and mounted onto gold card. I added gold coloured crystals to the centre. I think the stamp is from Tanda Stamps but not 100% sure. The frill was cut from red card and wrapped with ivory ribbon threaded with a really sparkly gold thread.

Challenge 17

I'm doing the challenges all out of order as I'm doing the card making ones first and getting more confused by the minute! (it doesn't take much). I'm having to download each challenge as they are put on the web site then file them once they are done otherwise I would be well and truly lost. Anyway, Est set this challenge and here is what she wanted

Challenge 17

There is nothing nicer than a scrummy choccachino from Thorntons and your challenge is to create a card in the colours of this scrummy drink. 1 chocalific point for completing this challenge. Remember ladies new cards only please.

Backing paper on the left is the reverse of 'Dress Up' from the Twirl by Crate Paper. I don't know where the paper on the right came from! Ribbon and satin heart slider are from my scrummy June kit from Ribbon Oasis . Flowers are Prima with a bit of bling, chipboard tag is by Papermania and the rub on greeting is Letraset.
