Add some Bling or Glitter

Morning all, it is my turn to set a theme for our CD Sunday challenge and i have chosen add some Bling or Glitter.
My card is a very simple one and quick and easy to do, I have use a CD from Debbi Moore called Glitter & Glitz , Magic Moments. 
The background and topper have been printed directly onto the card, ( this is the first time i have tried doing a card this way) more of a test really to see how it looks. I can see the advantage of doing cards this way, for quickness and simplicity of posting but i prefer to craft it with cutting and gluing in the traditional way . The glitter i used is an Ice Stickles, Crystal ice and have applied it her dress and hat and i have also used silver peel offs , yes i know a lot of you don't like peel offs although most of us have them in our stash, i do like them although i don't use the much they do have a place in crafting and i did promise myself to use up things from my stash and try to reduce the amount of things i have, because no matter how many times you say your  not going to buy more stash there is always something we crafters really need.
So as i say very quick and simple from printer to card , added glitter , a foiled sentiment and a pair of shoes with little red stones.
Please do take a look at what my team mates have produced for your inspiration this time, and i look forward to seeing what you come with and visiting your blogs.

Curious Cat's at CD Sunday

Hello and welcome to the latest challenge from CD Sunday.
This fortnight team mate Wynn is hosting the challenge choice and a great choice it is, 
Curious Cats. 
For my card i have used a Cd from Joanna Sheen in the house mouse range, so i have not needed to use anything else apart from the added flower and die cut.
The main image has been decoupaged and i love the backing paper.
I have made this on a white card base in a 8x8 .
I hope you enjoy this challenge as much as i did making this card, and i look forward to visiting you too. Do check out my team mates who have made excellent projects for your inspiration .
