Glitter and Sparkle DT card ..Stepper Card

Today's card is a first for me I have had my TL stepper Dies for ages and just not had the courage to use them..part of it being not too sure on the decorating bit of it..so here is my first attempt lol!..See we all learn as we go along . I used the beautiful image from East Winds and coloured her in with coloured Pencils, then mounted her onto Bright pink pearl card.I used Centura Pearl with a hint of gold for the main card,because its a good substantial card.. The paper is from the Crafter's Companion Kimono CD mounted once more on the bright pink Pearl card. The branches are the Blossom branches from the same Kimono Range too ..Very useful little die too and pretty little flowers with it too..Hence forth I went a bit crazy ,but I really like it and think it really sets the stamp of beautifully too..Thank you for visiting ,but don't sit too long or I may stick branches and Blossoms on you lol! :)xx
