DT Sukkersött Challenge #55 & Kort Cup #2

Me going "Shabby Vintage"

Friday again - I can't belive how fast time flies ;)
This friday's Sukkersött Challenge #55, is a Challenge with a little twist ;) We want you to make a project, that is neighter square or rectangle shaped - and we want it to sparkle!! Please take a peek in the Sukkersött blog, to read more about the challenge, this week's price, and to find out what the rest of the DT have made this week ;)

I decided to make a Cristmas Ball with a little "shabby vintage" look, using my brand new christmas stamps from Stempelglede, and my brand new beautiful christmas papers from Ladybug & Friends - that I got from a friend (thank you Malene ;)!

Everyone in the DT got sponsored with a bottle of Shimmerz Spritz from Shimmerz Paints, so if you click on the pics to get them bigger, you can see that the panels and the flowers on my card, are shimmering ;)

And when my card turned into this "Shabby Vintage" style, I also decided to take part in the Kort Cup #2, where the theme is Shabby Chic or Vintage ;)
