AAA Cards Challenge #55 Glitter

Welcome to the first AAA Cards challenge of the New Year. Well I don't know about you but I'm about ready to take down the Christmas decorations and the last of my visiting family make their way back home tomorrow.  Just the long haul of cold January weather to look forward to!

So to keep your spirits up and tempt you out of hibernation AAA Cards would like to see some glitter on your cards. And there's a winner's prize - a $20 Stampendous gift certificate - definitely worth staying awake for!

As always glitter is so difficult to do justice to in photos you'll just have to trust me this card is well sparkly!

Here's a little close up that begins to show the sparkle:

    This is so pretty, Jane. Love the purple and black & white together. I really like how you grounded the butterfly with lots of layers, but still kept is beautifully CAS. :)

    I'm in love with this card - seems we both went for butterflies - but what is that pink glitter paper you used? it's almost iridescent it seems, it's lovely!
