Magical wishes

The image I've used is called time flies. I thought this image really suited the blue paper as it has swirls and butterflies on it. I really wanted to make the card over-the-top as I sometimes feel like I don't decorate enough. I love those decadent cards with enormous amounts of embellishments and layers. So whenever I felt like stopping myself I ignored that impulse and inked, tore and layered some more.

I worked quite a while on this card and loved every second of it. As usual I coloured the image with promarkers, cut out with a circle nestability and layered on a bigger circle of orange bling cardstock. I added stickles glitter in colours "waterfall" and "stardust" on her and on the middle of the cut-out butterfly. The blue card base is stamped with a butterfly stamp with versamark ink and then embossed with a light blue embossing powder with some glitter in it. On top of that I added a piece of orange patterned paper with glitter embossed parts. I tore the top and bottom to make it a bit more vibrant. On top of that are two pieces of paper. They are actually cut as one strip from a 12x12" paper and then cut in two. I used a corner punch on them and after that I cut out a scalloped circle with my nesties which I embossed with a cuttlebug embossing folder. Finally I stamped the text "mystical wishes" that can be found on Elaine Cox' sheet 5 plate 46 in a blue ink and embossed with glittery powder. I then layered it on a tiny piece of orange bling card stock and attached to the right hand side of the card. And there you have it :)
