Sparkle and Shine!

When I saw the sketch for this weeks challenge at Atlantic Hearts Sketch Challenge, I immediately thought of a gold framed mirror that my husband's great aunt had in her house. I used the Hello Lovely paper for the card base then Cricut cut out a frame from gold glitter paper that reminded me of the mirror. I then added a sentiment and sparkles from the Diamonds are Forever stamp set. To add a fabulous flower to the side I once again used my Cricut and the quilling tool to make some fabulous rolled flowers that were lightly inked in Sorbet. For the final touch, I added a Gold Glitter Gem to the center of each flower. I am beyond happy with the result! I am also entering this card in the Tool Challenge at Heart 2 Heart Challenges since I used my Cricut and the Quilling tool to complete the card. Thanks for stopping by!
