We are seriously watching the pennies here and I am banned from buying any craft supplies,
but I couldn't resist a few bags of coloured sequins.
In my defence they only cost a few pounds, and they are soooo pretty!!
I really had to fight the urge to scatter them all over my Muse card.
Repeat after me... less is more... less is more...
I don't jave any zig-zag stamps or templates so, for that part of my card, I cut out some strips of grey, honeycomb dp and,
if you're a regular visitor, you'll know that I am 'florally challenged', so I replaced the bloom with stamped and die cut balloons, popped up on foam pads.
Here's my inspiration - the MUSE challenge card from Marion
Supplies.
Clearly Besotted stamps and dies from the 'Make A Wish' set.
Memento inks, bahama blue, tangelo, rose bud
Pink Petticoat digi paper, honeycomb. Sequins and gems
Fabulous card Caroline - great take on the challenge - love the balloons and shiny sequins.
