Timeless Tuesday Wednesday...but of course!

Well who's covered in glitter and not so smart at making shaker cards?? Give up? It's me and I'm really not a big fan of glitter that is in a wee container and is impossible not to get everywhere but where you want it BUT, I love Dee Jackson so I'm going for this shake em up card and for my "seeds" for the Sweet Peas ( why aren't they called like Sweet Beans or Corn ?) I decided since I had no seeds available I would create some with that totally messy stuff called glitter. Wow that was a mouthful. Figured pink flowers...pink seeds, pretty smart huh! Love this set of Flourishes and the phrase says it all...I'm not really holding the seeds as the glitter went everywhere and if it sprouts boy am I in deep trouble. This place will look like a fairy tale for sure and if I'm lucky there will be a Prince Charming and a beautiful happy ending. OMGoodness I'm way off base here. Anyway just used my Nestie cut out to make my frame etc. and glued it all down and I'm done. Need a shower now to get the glitter off my bod and clothes etc. Happy week fellow stampers and I'll see you later in the week for another challenge.
