Wild Orchid Challenge

The Wild Orchid Challenge 4 is 'Make it Sparkle' so this card has sparkle all over from the glitterd paper to the tinsel in the flower bouqet.

The image is 'For Someone Special' form 'Ladybug and Friends' coloured with Promarkers. The papers are 'Linen Closet' by DCWV and I used mirri board for mounting to bring in more shine. The flowers are from Wild Orchid with some Diamond Stickles added for sparkle; the Sparkle Gems, Crystal Stems and Ribbon are from my stash.The flower bouquet is Ivory Flower Soft and some Tinsel Glitter from Martha Stewart. This will be my first challenge entry so fingers crossed.

Thank you for visiting my Blog, your comments are really appreciated

Hi, my name is Elaina and I live near Kings Lynn, Norfolk with my Husband, Daughter and a selection of pets.

I have been crafting since I was a child when I learnt to knit and do cross stitch. I started making cards about 20 years ago when I discovered stamping and embossing. I have tried all sorts of other crafting techniques and currently I am doing a lot of Mixed Media work.

I was privileged to spend three years studying traditional needlework techniques at the Royal School of Needlework based in Hampton Court Palace. Amongst other techniques I learnt Silk shading, Goldwork, Whitework and Blackwork.
