Well here I am on my hols but my wonderful DH has brought his magic internet connection with us, he is a total star, he is so fab he told me to treat myself to the gorgeous new gossmere stamp from Tiddly inks. I think she is just wonderful.

I have given her some bling treatment especially for the 'Bring on the bling' over on the Tiddly inks challenge blog.
For the background I printed out the gossmere digital paper, I love the way it matches her skull on a stick!!!!!! to bling it up I popped it through my creatopia so that the printed side was all glued then I tipped over some gorgeous fine irredescant snow glitter (that I bought for little mo to do his christmas cards with last year!!!! but it is gorgeous!!!) it was so hard to take a picture of!!!!
The frame around her is popped up a little on silicone and it is the sull frame cuttlebug embossing folder. I painstaikingly cut the middle piece out to make the frame and kept the middle piece for the sentiment inside the card!!! ( ooohhh so thrifty thinks lou!!!) but the frame was just so perfect for the card I had in mind.
Gossmere herself is couloured up with promarkers, I blended together burnt orange and honeycomb and I adore the effect I got with it. To add a little bling to her I spica'd up her hair, skull on a stick and tiara and added a bit of rhinestone bling to her tiara too. I put a bit of glossy accents over the top of the stick and tiara. Its a shame because they sparkle so pretty in real life but its so gloomy and wet here that I just can't get a good blingified piccy!!!!!!![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgIpLyl__gh7d1CFAszOSEkPvSWQzN8tA179ca5bimp_-QQdpCjXbNI0t2QDGfsDjyfbTiYVB350_-0x48rQ7R7HVzmV3F5TIlBTPXTdfU9tA04bRS1J_XYL1lguXfgfugFNZvtAWLeooY/s400/glitzy+background+close+up+gossmere!.jpg)
