the Glitter Geek theme is a sketch challenge, i have turned the sketch at an opposite angle, i used a lili of the valley stamp, coloured with pro markers and matt and layered onto a die cut shape, cut a tag shape by hand and embossed and distressed it using dusty Concorde and walnut stain distress inks, with a little lace edge trimming (couldn't resist) glitter and gems to accent this card. The small sentiment is also a lili of the valley stamp and i wanted a subtle greeting so i think its quite fitting for this card ....I really enjoyed taking part in this weeks challenege and i hope i've met the requirements...wish me luck Bloggers ....X

Wow....what a lovely card. The little girl in mommies shoes is so adorable and the card elements are fab together.
Oh my this is good. This is real good. I love how you reversed the sketch, I love the flowers, the colours, the colouring in. You have it absolutely spot on.
