Polished!!!

I get a lot of inspiration for my cards by blog-hopping. I love to see what other crafters are making and sometimes it takes just that little spark to send your imagination into overdrive. That being said I make no apologies for these cards. They are a blatant COPY!!!! I saw them on Regina Easter's Cutting Café blog and thought 'I can do that!' So I did!

Now, I have to say that I have changed them a little, making one a little more 'blingy' than the other. I cut the nail polish bottle from cardstock twice in the shadow mode then once again in black pearlised cardstock at the same size. The bottles were adhered together at the top with a hinge, then the black cardstock was adhered to the card base. I then cut the bottles again in normal mode from purple holographic and glittered DCWV papers, and adhered the bottles to the card fronts with foam tape. I embossed the mirri card lids with a starburst embossing folder and added gems to the centres. I added glittercard numbers, ribbon bows and WOC blooms along with computer generated tags. The bottles were finished with gems around the curves of the bottles.

Nail polish bottles- Forever Young
Numbers- Suburbia.
Pop over to the Cutting Café blog to see more of Regina and her DT's work.
