I love the concept of this card. I am a goal driven person and love making my ideas into action. I have a page of 104 life goals of my dreams, goals and fantasies. Over the last ten years I have been making them happen. Last year I flew a plane! I would never have imagined that could happen in my life. But my point is simple. What ever you can dream up, you can make happen!

My card is made of black bling bazzills, I put a piece of black card through the Cuttlebug with the Swirls folder, I then traced glossy accents over the raised parts. This always looks great on black card.

I used a little bit of Stazeon ink around the black card, then drew Tinkerbell from Disney Tinkerbell and Friends Cartridge out in the filigree function with Silver Cri-kits pens and then the shadow function to cut her out. I embossed her detailed wings with Bridal embossing powder. I used Stickles to bling up her wand.

The title frame is cut from the Cindy Loo cartridge, it is the mushroom frame and layers. I used SCAL to write the words with silver Cri-Kits pens.

I then used an embossing texta and rainbow embossing powder to draw 'magic' coming from her wand. 

You can make ANYTHING happen!

Enjoy the Card Swap Blog Hop this week! Plenty more gorgeous cards to see and be inspired.

Beautiful and Bold

Hi Everyone! I have been part of a fun card swap with the team from Scrappy-Go-Lucky and this is one of my favourite ever cards I have made!

I was given a theme, (Can you guess?) and went looking about on the internet for different pictures on that theme for inspiration.

I found this painting below by Fine Artist Elaina Wagner.

I am a huge fan of Glossy Accents and love using it excess lately to make things look glossy, especially embossed paper. I made a plain card out of black bazzills, cut three hair pieces and put them through the Cuttlebug with the Wood Grain folder. I gently inked Stazeon over the raised pieces and used Glossy Accents to higlight strands of hair. I added a rounded face in white card and inked it with Weathered Wood Distress ink to define cheeks. I made some lips in black card, used white gel pen to higlight it and put three layers of Glossy Accents to give it a real lip gloss and puffy lip look.

I drew the eyes and nose using black watercolour pencils and used a few layers of Glossy Accents and a rhinestone in the pupil to give it a glossy eye ball appearance. I also used Silver and Gunmetal Stickles to make eyelashes.

I made the mask from white bazzills and ran it through the Cuttlebug using the Swirls folder. I embossed the whole mask with Bridal embossing powder and Tiara Stickles to border it.

I used a piece of black and white ribbon as the mask holder and layered a flower using Sure Cuts a Lot and a two different flowers I found on clip art. I split them apart in SCAL before cutting. Here are the images you can save to your computer and use the Trace Image function to transport them into SCAL if you like it.

White glossy pen and more Glossy Accents finished the flower off very nicely.

I love the boldness of her face and seeing the ten cards together on my bookshelf was an awesome sight! Make sure you check out more cards this week on Scrappy-Go-Lucky! I have received some in the mail, they are so gorgeous! You are all in for a treat!
