Fair-i-ly beautiful!!

I am in love with today's card! :-) I found some gorgeous sheets of paper on a trip to the nearby market today. I've used a couple of them today :-) And I am proud of myself! Well, modesty seems to be my middle name, huh? ;-) Jokes apart, this card is for a few challenges
- Get Sketchy's 'awesome' sketch
- The Cuttlebug Spot's Color Challenge (Pink and green).
- Cute Card Thursday's Dimensional Cards
- Creative Cottage's Pretty Pink challenge
- Crafty Creations' Anything Goes Challenge # 61
- Incy Wincy Designs' Stitching
- Quirky Crafts Challenge's theme of Flowers
- Papertake Weekly's Open Theme



The image is a rub-on transfer from Hobby Ideas. I have used the 3D outliner for all the 3D glitter effect on the card. Stitched and ruffled a piece of organza ribbon... I made the flower by following a tutorial on the Whiff of Joy tutorial blog (well, loosely).. I did the white faux stitching with a white gel pen (one of my favorite tools these days!)

Hope you like it... 

Ciao,
Smita

PS: The green paper was already embossed.. And the pink had a very different texture... I hope you can see it in the picture... they were so beautiful that I couldn't let go of  them in the store... ;-)
