Paper Play DT ~ Add Shine


Hi Blogging Beauties,
Its a Thursday Paper Play day - yay!! I do love these Thursdays.
This week our challenge is to add shine.
This can be shiny paper, stickles or kindy glitz, crystal effects etc.
We are sponsored by "Just some Lines" and we were given these lovely images to work with.
I happen to love this girl.  I think she is adorable.


 Now I have to be honest and say I really struggled getting my photos to show the shine on my card.  So I waited until it was night and took a night-time shot as well that shows up the shine a little better on her dress.  But really you will just have to trust me that it is there...I did use crystal effects and I hate using it because it always gets clogged up in the bottle and it is hard to get it to stay where you want it on the image.  (The card has curled up a bit from the Kindy-glitz and has since been squashed flat by a large box.)


I would like to enter a few challenges:

OSAAT - Make it Pretty
Paper Sundaes - Flowers, lace, distressing and pink
