A spoonful of Sugar Challenge

Here is my take on this weeks challenge for Spoonful of Sugar Challenge! Once again I have used quite a large card. First I used a purple base of pearlescent card to start with. Then I used some rather gorgeous paper from Crafters Companion, given to me by my daughter Arline, as she knows I love purple. Then I used a plain piece of silver paper to break up the design and then used a bar of the purple card and mounted some of the patterned paper across this to make the bar effect in the middle of the card. Then I used a stamped Tilda image and coloured her in using my Cosmic Shimmer powders and she glistens lovely under the light, if you catch it just right. Then I mounted the image onto some more of the purple card and stuck her on so she is raised with some sticky pads. To finish it off I have used some pretty purple flowers with a brad from Hobbycraft and a sentiment onto purple card. Thanks for looking.
