Cheers to Diamonds!

Cheers to me!

I won 2nd place in the blog hop over at Guylou's Inimitabilty!
I must confess, I really like blog hops because you get to see a whole variety of creations, often made with the same set of images. And if I get to win something, that is a lovely bonus!

With the Blog Hop was a challenge and I'm entering a project in the Punches, Dies and Diamonds Challenge:



I don't have a cutting machine, but I do have more than 1 pair of scissors - and I love cutting shapes with my various scissors. The fabulous Spirellis from CSDesigns qualify for a die-cut, I think. :). I used the diamond shape in 2 sizes cut from mirror board. These were tied with shades of purple sewing thread. The little stars were punched from silver cardstock. I did some line embossing using my Martha Stewart board. The lines I highlighted with silver pencil.

The lovely Leah at the Cocktail Party forms the focus of the card. She was coloured with Tombows - wow, haven't used them for a while. I 3D'd her to create a fancy club effect. The bits of bling adds more diamonds to my card. Yes, and some bling to Leah's outfit!


Hope you like her!
