Dare To Be Fabulous!

I hope your weekend is going well,

I have been not so well over the last week and been staying in but it has helped me get some crafty projects in.

My card today dares you to be Fabulous...I know you all are!


I wanted to play along with the 'Everything Turns Gold' challenge at CAS-ual Fridays. I was inspired by Channin's card here. The purple and gold attracted my eye immediately. No surprise there! I also wanted to have another play with the fab sketch at CAS(E) this Sketch-

These stamps are super old from PTI and I only came across them when I was looking for another stamp. Then 'ping' the idea arrived. The Mendhi was heat embossed in gold and then the sentiment heat embossed in white and popped up. I know this card looks super CAS but it took me ages to decide what card base to use and what colour enamel dots. I messed about for ages until I was happy with the look.
 This will be entered into:

CAS-ual Fridays-Everything turns to Gold
CAS(E) this Sketch
Glitter and Sparkle Challenge-add gold and/or Silver
Enjoy the rest of your day x

    Regal. That's what word came to mind upon seeing your rich purple and gold card, Sandie. And I understand how long a CAS card can take to make; getting those small details just right is crucial! It's a wonderful card. That medallion is fabulous and wonderfully embossed. Hope you're feeling better by now. Take good care. Bev

    It was worth putting in some time to get the look you liked in the end, Sandie - your cards looks absolutely gorgeous!!!! The gold and purple are soooooo beautiful and I love the little bit of white you added with the sentiment and the dots!!!!
