Engagement card

One of my friends has suddenly just got engaged so I had to knock up a card - quick!  She is a city gal with a big lust for diamonds so I just had to use My Favorite Things à la modes It Must Be Love gal...




Isn't she gorgeous?  Both sentiments come with the stamp set.  I matched her up with My Minds Eye Andrea Victoria papers along with the Die-Namics Medium Leafy Flourish die, Die-Namics Rolled Daisy die and Die-namics Mini Tabs Foursome.   Here's a closer look at her where you'll also see I used lots of Glamour Dust on her ring - it really pops off the card!




I also used the sketch again for this month's My Favorite Things Guest Designer sketch challenge.  I just luuurve this sketch!
Well, I hope your week has started off well!  Thanks for visiting and see you tomorrow with the start of the All That Scraps September previews! 
 



I am also entering my card into the following challenges:
