The Pink Elephant ...Sketch Time...

Monday morning and time for a sketch at The Pink Elephant.  This week our sketch is one by the extremely talented Lori and is a real fun one to work with.  Do pop over to The Pink Elephant to see the amazing creations by the rest of the team and hopefully join in too.
To create my card I used one of the silhouette images from the 'Dancing With Shadows' CD by Joanna Sheen.  I haven't used this CD for ages, but was inspired to do so by the new challenge blog...

CD Sunday, where their very first theme is 'Things with Wings'.

As many of my friends are on the DT I'm hoping that Wendy's brilliant idea of a challenge site using Craft CDs as the starting point for each project will prove very popular.  I'm sure it will as we all have CDs on our shelves that sometimes gather more dust than use.
Other materials used on my card include a Cuttlebug embossing folder, Nellie Snellen flower and leaf punches.  I've also added glitter and tons of tiny gems to make the frame that bit special.

Other challenges...
Have a great start to the week everyone.

Beautiful card Ann. So dainty and magical. Looks as if a lot of hard work went into it. The cuttlebug pattern sets it off very well.
