All That Glitters...

Hello folks!

How's your week going? My mojo seems to have gone on walkabout since Christmas so I'm keeping it all very clean and simple at the moment. This little card has been done for 2 challenges - Addicted to CAS  where the code word is 'cake' and AAA Card Challenge which has a glittery theme:







I mixed a smidgen of glitter with some gold embossing powder and embossed this little cupcake from Waltzingmouse. I matted it onto gold card stock and plonked it on a navy background which I was also going to mat against gold, then decided to tilt it and add some glitter to the corners. What is it with that stuff? It gets everywhere!

Fingers crossed I'm feeling a bit more crafty next time...I can feel a shopping spree coming on otherwise...

Thanks for calling by!
