It's Good to Dream: SC240

I had a lot of fun with Splitcoast's sketch 240. I love anything that incorporates circles!

Here is how I made this card:

• This is a 5 1/2"x4 1/4" card base of Bashful Blue.
  
• I randomly stamped the flower image from Razzle Dazzle on the bottom half of the card using Bashful Blue ink.
• A 5 1/2"x 1 1/2" piece of Melon Mambo took a trip through my Big Shot with the Perfect Details Texturz Plate. TIP: I used extra pieces of card stock on top of my "sandwich" for a deeper impression.
• Melon Mambo Polka Dot Grosgrain was tied off to the side.
• For the circle element, I used the new Medallion stamp (inked up in Melon Mambo and stamped onto Whisper White). I trimmed out the inside scallop circle and mounted it onto a slightly larger circle of Melon Mambo (cut using my Circle Scissors Plus). TIP: My original plan did not include adding the Melon circle, but my cutting job on the scallops wasn't so great and this helped to hide any imperfections.
• Another slightly larger circle of Certainly Celery came next. TIP: The dial feature on the Circle Scissors Plus makes layering a breeze.
• The main image from Razzle Dazzle was filled in using Certainly Celery, Bashful Blue and Melon Mambo SU Markers. I repeated the process onto a second piece of Whisper White so that I could cut out some of the leaves and blooms.
• The cut out pieces were popped up using dimensionals.
• Dazzling Diamonds glitter was added to the blooms with the help of a 2-way glue pen.
• The sentiment was inked up in Melon Mambo and strategically placed using a stamp-a-ma-jig.
• Two small filigree brads were attached to the card using glue dots.
• I disassembled two Circle Ice Rhinestone brads and used more glue dots to attach them to the center of the brads.

I love the rhinestones and sparkle!
