ABC Challenge and WOYWW

This week's ABC challegne is S for Sparkle ... so go mad with those stickles, glitters and bling!!
 I have made a step card using a couple of my Tildas that have yet to see ink ...
I coloured the images in using my Prismas (slowly getting the hang of them LOL!!) and then cut them out. I liberally stickled their stirts with frosted lace, and the balloon with stardust stickles. I made a simple step card, just using 1 paper from DCWV Pocketful of Posies pad.  I punched flowers and added gems to their centres, and finally added some flat backed gems.  The sentiment recipe is from LOTV.

I am rubbish at photographing these cards .. so here is the view from the front ...
 ... and a close up of the sparkly girls!!
 I am entering it into these challenges:
Just Magnolia - Happy Birthday
Cute and Girly - cute and girly

Now its wednesday so time to pop over to Julia's for the weeky mooch round her desk, and lots of other crafters.  Here is my desk ...

A bit of making in the process!! I am in the process of maknig a card for a couple of challenges, and my new Sassys from Sugar Nellie arrived yesterday ... they are inked up, just need colouring.  .  In the background you can see an image I coloured with my prismas ... not sure I am going to use it as the shading isn't quite right, and another Sassy ready to colour.  I am slowly getting the hang of these pencils .. .not as easy as watercolouring me thinks!!  The ipad is there, but closed - not in a music mood, and the cat is absent ... far to warm to be in, lots of rodents to torment!!

If you have a moment or two to spare could you pop across to my little girls' blog and leave a comment on the cards they have made for the Simon Says Stamp challenge for children.  Ellie's cards are here, and Beth's cards are here.   Thank you.

Great card - glad you are getting on ok with the prismas - I have never used them as I am still perserveering (sp?) with promarkers.
