Diamonds Are a Girl's Best Friend

Good Morning everyone, welcome to my little corner of blogland. Sunday is with us again, and sees the start of a brand new challenge at THE CRAFTY PAD. This week our theme is

DIAMONDS Are a Girl's Best Friend

In other words, we want you to use GEMS on your creations. Here's my card...


The DT have all created with Belinda in Reflection available from The Crafty Pad Designs. I have played around with the image a little...here's the whole image:


As you can see, instead of using the mirror, I have 'reflected' the image of Belinda herself.


I have added lots of gems, mainly clear, with a few red and green thrown in for good measure!


I can't remember where the sentiment is from, but I thought it was perfect for the card! I think I'm having a blonde day today as I can't remember what my papers are either (sorry about that!) My Belindas are coloured with Promarkers.
Our sponsor this week is the lovely Joanna Sheen with a £10 shopping spree in her online shop.


I would like my card to be considered for the following challenges:
Hope to see you over at The Crafty Pad!
Oooh, before you go, do pop back to my blog later today as I have another post coming up, and some exciting news!!!!!
