CAS-ual Fridays!


Comin' atcha today with a new CAS-ual Friday challenge!


And I'll be honest and admit that this was truly a challenge for me.

1. Glitter is not my thing.
2. I really don't care for glitter
3. Glitter and I? Nah, not so much.

BUT, 
with that said,
 I have a ton of it!
(In tiny bags that Sparkle & Sprinkle sends me as free samples when I place an e.p. order.) 

My first task was deciding what to do with these glue dots that the GLUE DOTS company so graciously sent all of us. (can you tell they are the sponsor this week? *grin*)

Once I knew I wanted to use my Tim Holtz mini crown mask, my second challenge was deciding on what colors of glitter to actually use!
I think I went overboard...
*grin*

Add in the glimmer mist and this card is in the running for Miss Glitter America! *groan*

You just HAVE to check out what the rest of the DT did...
I'm so lucky to work with such talented ladies.

Join us for some glittery glue dot fun this week!

See you on the flip side,
*mwah*

Well for a gal who admits that glitter isn't her thing, you ROCKED it on this card! Literally adding jewels to the crown :)

Super fun, Dana! You had me laughing about your "relationship" with glitter, and I am totally sympathetic. But you definitely made the most of it on that cute crown!

LOL! Super fun card! I love the misting--it looks like the sea (isn't there a king of the sea tuna?).

Unknown said...

i LOVE the background of this card. the whole card is so pretty overall, wonderful effect.

Unknown said...

Fun card! I'm with you on the glitter ... have it, but it gets all over when I play with it. ;o)

Jen Adcock said...

Hysterical! Great card. You pulled it off. Looks like you and glitter agreeing to disagree has worked a treat. Fab-O-lous impasse!

Tara Cardwell said...

Your post really made me laugh! You did a brilliantly glittery job for a gal who hates glitter!

Andrea M said...

OMG! Seriously?! You created a jeweled crown?! Honestly!!!! WOW!!

So pretty and fun, Dana! I love those fun pops of color, and the misted paper! And that crown is so cool!!!
