ABC - S is for Sparke

This for the ABC challenge which is S for sparkle this week, fabulous I just love sparkle.

I used a sketch from the lovely Hanna, they are just so amazing to work with I love them. I firstly stamped a frame amd heat embossed in white, inked around the edges with a mixture of pink and brown then stamped Tilda in the middle. I only left her levitating again, didn't I, so I slotted some ribbon through the frame for her to sit on. The spotty paper had no name on it and the rest is from my 'bit box'. The ribbon is from 'Craft Ribbons' bought at the NEC, and the pearls are by Prima. I cut the leaves by hand and inked the edge of them and the flowers then glittered the edges with stardust stickles. Tilda is also liberally sticked - her headress, her petticoat and flowers all got the treatment.

This is the sketch I worked from.

Well folks would you belive it's been sleeting here today, it started of with hailstones which turned to sleet.

I knew I shouldn't have put my chairs outside - that was tempting providence!!
