Joyful Flutter!

posted by *Vicki* - Stamped Smiles
Hello friends!  I'm back again with another creation using this GORGEOUS Elisabeth Bell image called February Flutter  from her Digital Designs store!  Now don't let the name fool you as you can clearly see that this sweet image can be used for ANY month of the year!  I've picked some colors that work great for Christmas! (please click the photo if you'd like a larger view of my card.)

I've used some poinsettia dies for the flower, which matches the flower in her hair as well as the embossed design on the light blue card stock.  And I really wanted this to sparkle and shine a bit, so I've sprayed over the design with some Vanilla Shimmer Spray Smooch!  I've also glittered the wings.

I've also added this card into a few challenges:
The Pink Elephant - Blue, Green & Red
Paper Playtime - Christmas Carol inspired (Dance of the Sugarplum Fairy)
Magical Mondays - Wings (have to use a magical image)
Flutterby Wednesday - Open theme (have to use fairy, butterfly image)
Studio 313 - Sparkle
Tuesday Throwdown - Embellish It

PLEASE DON'T FORGET TO ENTER THE ELISABETH BELL'S WORLD CHALLENGE!!  THE THEME IS ANYTHING CHRISTMAS!! (EASY!) I'M SURE YOU CAN FIND CHALLENGES TO COMBINE WITH IT! :)  WE'D LOVE TO SEE WHAT YOU COME UP WITH!!

Thanks so much for joining me over here today and having a look at my creation!! Let me know what you think of this image...isn't it GORGEOUS?!!!
