Crystal Ball


Good morning to all of you! I am so glad the weekend is here. Not sure what is in store for me this weekend but at least I know it is not going to work! Thank goodness! Well today's card was created using a new image just released at Squigglefly called Crystalball. I had a grand idea for this card but not so sure it was as grand as I had hoped. I thought I would make a shaker card using a SU "cup" designed for shaker cards...it didn't turn out too bad, I just think the cup needed to be bigger for my image. I filled the cup with Diamond Dust. The embossing folder I used is a Cuttlebug folder called Gracie's Frame. I added some flowers that I had purchased at the Dollar Store in the lower right hand corner and a few pieces of bling in each corner of the embossed frame. The background paper was from SU both the patterned and the solid. I like how it turned out but just wish my shaker cup was a little bigger. Anyhooooo...that is it for today...I will be out to see each of you today a little later. Thanks thanks thanks for stopping in to see me AND leaving some love! May you have a blessed day!

HUGS!
Vicki

Hello Vicki. So beautiful and very delicate. Love the embossing, the centrepiece is fabulous and finished with those pretty flowers and ribbon. Just perfect. Have a lovely day, happy crafting.
With love, Sandra xx

Great idea you had Vicki! The beauty of it being digital is that you can re-size it to the correct size for the shaker cup next time! I love the embossed frame around it and the little flowers in the corner! It's great how you have the stars inside the globe pink too!
