Mirror, Mirror On The Wall..

This is another one of those cards that has been stuck in my mind since I purchased this adorable little lady months ago at Prairie Fairy Designs. However, I'm not as pleased with the execution as I would like, but it's done now.

Gillian is supposed to be at a studio and dancing looking at the mirror with the handrail attached to the mirror; the area above the top brads is supposed to be the beveled edge of the mirror, and the area below the brads is the baseboard. My papers are from K&Co. The buttons, ribbon and gems are from my stash. I made the felt flower with a die from My Favorite Things. And the leaves behind the flower are made with a MS stamp. I put acetate over the mirror image, so it would look like glass, and Glossy Accents over the wood floor so it would look waxed.

I'm entering this card in the following challenges:

Craft Your Passion Challenges - buttons

Flourishes - make a card larger than 5" x 7" (My card is 8-1/2" x 5.5")

Color Throwdown - pear, kraft, pink

Thanks for stopping by, and I hope you will leave a comment.

Hugs,
