My card for this week's challenge has been made with the teapot and teacup digi's made by our very own Priscilla. Your can purchase them at the Priscillastyles Store along with an array of other beautifully designed digi images.
I used crystal effects on the images to give them a china/porcelain look to them. My paper is from K & Company along with the matching covered brads. The lace border punch, frond, and branch punch is from Martha Stewart. The flourish is a sizzx die cut and everything was glittered with stickles.
Thanks for dropping by today to view my card. Be sure to check back for all the fun happens this month is the Midnight Madness Sketch Challenge!
