Special Reason with Bling

I pulled out my Special Reason Stamp Set and inked it up today because it was 88 degrees!  Yes, can you believe it?  A week ago it was cold, rainy, windy, and just plain yuck!  Today is the first day of Spring, and a gorgeous day, thank you Lord!  It made me think of this stamp set and the fact that Spring has literally sprung.  Then, there is the pollen count, but I will leave that for another day.

I love the color combo, and the blinnnnnng it has.  At first I thought too blingy, one of the pics above, is an extreme close-up and looks funny, however, when you are looking at it normally, it's not bad at all.  Yes, I am your regular stamper who tries hard to do the best job on her cards, but is definitely not perfect.  This is such a fun, happy card.

Did you notice the centers of the flowers?  I added some of our Fine Tip Glue Pen, and it looks like the old Crystal Effects we use to use.  Dual purpose adhesive, I love it.

I added some Stylish Stem flowers on the inside of the card to give it a cute finished look.  I also popped up the first layered panel with our Stampin' Dimensionals.  I really should buy stock in those, I use them that much.

You probably can't see it too well on this picture, but I took some Dazzling Diamonds AND Clear Embossing Powder, mixed them together, and now when I emboss, it come with some automatic bling on it!  Cool, right?
