Inspired By Design ~ Love Life: I didn't quite know about this challenge when I first saw it but when I started looking through the magazines I couldn't decide. I got so many ideas.
I love the colours of the ad I chose. I also love the sparkle of the diamonds. Typically I'm not so much into jewels and sparkle but I liked the effect. I tried to use similiar colours. I used a couple of small buttons as stamps with metallic paint to get the sparkle. I'm very pleased with the result.
Thanks for this particular challenge Melanie.
