Sparkly Bling

Ahh this was my first attempt at BLING! I guess this was my trial run at the 3 Clovers Thursday Challenge. It really is very pretty, but was a real pain to photograph and get a true color (sort of like purple!)

This card is made of brushed gold, real red and handsome hunter from SU! I also used SU gold embossing powder and some fun little blingy/glittery stick on brads. I embossed the Penny Black sentiment and added some SU! ribbon.

Stamps: Great Impression H167, Penny Black Sentiment

Cardstock: Real Red, Handsome Hunter, Brushed Gold

Ink: Versamark, and gold embossing powder

Misc: Nestie, SU ribbon, misc glitter dots

Card size: 5x5
