Dance of the Sugar Plum

I have been not been feeling well the last couple of days, so I have been watching movies.  My favorite is White Christmas with Bing Crosby.

The ballerinas at the end of the movie inspired me to create this card.

I didn't want to use the usual red, I wanted to do something a little different, so I went with softer colors like pinks, and blues.

 

 

 

Oh my goodness! Isn't she the cutest ballerina ever?!

This stamp is called Abi Ballerina from All Dressed Up Stamps.

These stamps are absolutely adorable.

If you haven't seen these stamps, I highly recommend you check them out.

 

I used some fabulous papers from Maja Designs.

I also used a wonderful swirly die cut for an added touch.

You can find both of these from Stay True To God.

 

I also used a little bit of paper from DCWV Chateau Lavendar stack.

I added some lovely pink glittered ribbon, my favorite lace,

and some gorgeous pink paper flowers.

I also added a pretty white flower with a crystal brad for a center

and some lovely tulle for a very simple bow.

Next I added some pretty crystals to the ballerina's hair for a nice look.

I also added some beautiful fibers for the tag.

Some pinks, whites, and greens.  Some with glitter.

 

And lastly I added glitter.

Lots and Lots of glitter!

I added glitter to the ballerina's skirt, the flowers,

around the tag, and around the card.

You can never have to much glitter. 

Although my husband might disagree with that statement.  LOL!!
