Double D, Focus On The Sentiment

Good Morning! 

A brand new Challenge is up and running over at the Double D Challenge Blog. 

Here is your Inspiration Tile:

Here is my card:

I adore this sentiment!

The She Leaves A Little Sparkle Wherever She Goes is by Great Impressions, Sparkle stamp.

Now if you are a crafter of any sorts, you know this to be true.....like literally true!  LOL

And as much as a loooooove that stamp I just had to add a bit more whimsy using the PTI Shakers and Sprinkles Kit items, Scatter die and JOY stamp.

The frames were created by using the dies from that same PTI Kit. 

Inks in; Bermuda Bay, Tempting Turquoise and Wild Wasabi.

I patted Stickles all over the inked background, to make it really sparkle.

White and Black Embossing Powders.

Iridescent Sequins.

Please come on over to the Double D Blog and join in all of the FUN!

You'll be glad you did as there is always a pretty prize up for grabs!  

Here's the prize for this Challenge:

Thanks for popping in and leaving that sparkly trail!  ;)

Enjoy~~

I stamped 4 of the long sized pallets for my background, flipping the stamp so the details would not be all in the same direction.  I then stamped 1 more long pallet and 2 of the smaller sized ones to created the 'gate' portion of my fence and fussy cut them out.  

I backed the 2 smaller ones with Fun Foam to add dimension.

Fussy cut leaves and flowers.

Layered it on card stock and a piece of chip board.

Has a nice bit of dimension to it.
