Metallic Dancing Girl (Milk Coffee image)

Hi Crafty Friends,

I have hardly been around on my blog for the past month but I have been still keeping up with admiring everyone's beautiful creations and the challenge blogs with all their gorgeous DT artwork inspiring me. 

This is a card I made for my gorgeous sister-in-law who just turned 40 (obviously hehe). She had a 70's and 80's themed party so I thought this sassy Milk Coffee image was perfect as were the metallic papers hehe. I embossed the red metallic paper and then added rhinestones in the joins, they looked a lot more sparkly in real life.
