absolutely, fabulous

I'm surprised at myself these days.  Lately, a card just doesn't seem "done" to me unless I've added some sparkle.  I wanted to try out the Delightful Doilies from last month's release and was pleasantly surprised with the results.  I'm not one to lean towards the vintage look, but it seems as though that's where I ended up anyways.  Now, on to the main event:

Paper: Solar White (Neenah), New Leaf, Aqua Mist
Stamps: Say It With Style, Delightful Doilies
Ink: Crumb Cake, Baja Breeze, and Wild Wasabi (SU), Tea Dye Duo
Other: punch (SU), crystal glitter (Martha Stewart)

Have a fabulous day, Friends.

Gorgeous! Love the color combo you used and the stamping looks awesome! I've had some problems lining up the larger doily of this set but yours looks perfect!
