White with a dash of colour

Ok .. yeah I know I said I was going to bed ... but I thought I would just quickly get this card completed and posted .... and now it's 9.30pm!  so much for my early night!

So very quick post .....

Lots of glitter!!!! I have glitter everywhere now .....

I have used the absolutely gorgeous Lil Kelita from Tickled Pink stamps.  I was so lucky and won the whole release a while back!  I have them in rubber .... which I preferred at the time but now I realise that digi are a lot more versatile I tend to purchase most of my stamps as Digis.

Talking about Tickled Pink Stamps if you head over there they are having their 2nd Birthday celebration with a blog hop ... and you could win a prize!  I have my fingers crossed as there are 1 or 2 images I don't have that I would love.

The fancy edge around the outside of the card I painted with white acrylic paint and while it was still wet I sprinkled it with glitter.
 A paper flower with some glitter glue in the middle.

 An embossed background with a little bit of random glitter glue to add some sparkle.

A gorgeous piece of ribbon that I picked up at the local op shop!

I would like to enter this card into the latest Tickled Pink Challenge - #41 White on White

ok I'm really going to bed now ... I'm sure a good nights rest will do me good and hopefully I will feel much better in the morning.
