"CELEBRATE" CARD!

Hello again, Everyone! Can you believe I have ANOTHER post already? I know...it's incredible! lol This is a fun one for me. A little while ago I had a post on my sidebar about a giveaway that my friend Dunja was having. Her blog is "Dunja's Cards and More" and you can find it HERE. I didn't win her grand prize but Dunja was so sweet that she added a second prize. I was fortunate enough to win that one! Yay for me! So I received this lovely package all the way from Germany! It includes ribbon & lace, owl charms, and the sweetest little stamp!

I just had to make a card right away using the stamp. I also used some of the gorgeous pink lace! It doesn't show very well in the picture, but I first colored her sweet tutu with a silver pencil, and then I applied the diamond stickles. I also had to stickle the stars a bit! Isn't she adorable? :o)

Papers: K & Co - Sweet Nectar;
Stamp: Nellie Snellen - Dawn;
Prisma Colored Pencils, 
Odorless Mineral Spirits & Blending Stumps;
Die: Spellbinders Nestabilities - Labels Fifteen;
Flowers: Gift from Silvia;
Ranger Stickles: Diamond, Gold;
Unknown: cardstock, brads, pearls, leaves.

There's one more special gift I would like to share with you. I received the most amazing parcel in the mail this week, and it came all the way from South Korea. My dear friend Joy made it for me. She has posted really wonderful photos of it over on her blog Art Angels Designs. She is such an amazing talent, you really should pop over and take a look at it. It even includes my family photo...you'll see that my girls really are all grown up! lol To see my incredible gift just click HERE. Joy also sent me some other wonderful goodies, including some fantastic stamped images. So I'm off to do some more coloring! :o)
