Ballerina Dancer Card

Stepped out of my Clean & Simple CAS style again and made a girly card with many embellishments.

Used a StitchyBear digi, Ballerina. Made the card in monochromatic colors of pinks. Used Recollections Butterfly Wings cardstock & 2 shades of pink glitter cardstock. Used Spellbinders Nest die to cut out the digi that I printed on pink cardstock. Used Cuttlebug embossing folder for sentiment tag strip. Stamped Whimsical Designs Everyday Sentiments sentiment. Used Tim Holtz Distress Ink spun sugar to make the white silk flowers pink. Always a good thing to buy white so you can match to the color you want with TH Distress Inks. Added feathers, flowers & gems.
