Celebrate your inner princess



My starting point for this card was the adorable Martha Stewart Crown Punch. You can't have a crown without jewels, so I added pink Twinkle Stickers. I knew that I wanted to use the "Celebrate Your Inner Princess" sentiment by A Muse with it.

I thought a strip of A Muse Shimmer Couture Damask would fit the feel that I was trying to acheive. I added some satin ribbon by PaperTrey Ink in Raspberry.

I tried a number of different card bases, but finally opted for a dark gray textured by SU!. Going so dark is unusual for me!



Have a great weekend!
