Tag Tuesday Glitter Challenge

Finally got a teeny amount of time to play.... these past, oh what is it now.... 3 weeks?... have been crazy with kid activities.  Overlapping sporting events, middle school open houses, concerts, recitals, and now two Saturdays of snow make-up classes.  Sheesh.  Okay, I'm done... on to the tag.  :)

Louise's challenge over at Kard Krazy this week is to use GLITTER on our tags for Tag Tuesday #49.  Hooooo what fun!  Of course, I can never really get glitter photographed properly, so you'll have to take my word for it when I say it's on the ruffles of her dress, her bracelet, her earring, and her hair comb.  The background is shimmery glitter mists... it sorta looks like twilight IRL.  The lovely lady is from the Queen of Tarts No. 7 set by Character Constructions, which is available at Stampington.  The background gate is also from Stampington (unmounted).  The teensy bluebird is from the Fairy Sweets set at Oxford Impressions.

Okay, I'm off to grocery shop and get ready for our dueling intensive volleyball clinic (5:30 to 8:45) and baseball game (8:10 to 9:30).  I'm not seein' any crafting time in my evening... hope you all have a good one!

    Oh the ruffled skirt is so cute- I wish I had my own to wear! Always love your cards... I've wondered- do you purposely weave a bird into most of your designs? They look so 'at home'.
