I remember 6 years of childhood ballet classes (and more than a few performances) and, all these years later, my mind tells me I could still do it. My body, however, rebels at the idea so the dancing is only in my mind. Today's sentiment was inspired by that. :-D
The card features an image from Fabrika Fantasy - I think it's called Fire Fairy. I colored it with a combination of polychromos pencils and ProMarkers, trying to keep an underlying 'sepia' tone, highlighted with bright yellow. I cut the image with one of my newer stitched dies from Cheapo Dies.
I matted it with black CS and shaped the corners with a Fiskars' punch. The card itself was shaped with one of my extra large dies from Spellbinders, then folded in half. I added the glittered ribbon and laid down a row of bronze pearls to accent the sepia look.
I put one, tiny, bronze, pearl on the opposite side and then added the sentiment.

Beautiful card with a gorgeous image. I'm stiff just climbing ladders to clean windows - so don't think I could do much dancing...!!! Thank you for joining in the challenge at Di's Digis.
