ReplyDeleteFiona, you are a master of the gothic cards. Love the way you have framed the sugar skull and that button and tassel are "the business". Well done in combining the 2 challenges :D
ReplyDeletethats awesome Fiona. Love that skull tassle.
ReplyDeleteYou always have tons of pretty pretty's on your cards.
What's funny is I just printed out a sugar skull digi last night to color. Skulls are on everyone's mind right now.
Wow! Your card is really cool! That skull really pops against the purple and black background. Your skull and tassel is the perfect embellishment! Thanks for sharing your card with us at Simon Says Stamp and Show. <3 Candy
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry your fabulous piece got kicked off the site of some closed minded individuals. Brilliant use of embellishments! I love the gems in the eyes and scattered throughout the skull. That tassel rocks! You do Gothic so well!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous card, love how you always make everything look so classy x
ReplyDeleteWow, what an unusual card! Love the detail.
