Challenge #203 - "Charming" - The Paper Shelter

Good Morning Paper Shelter Followers, well the theme for this weeks Challenge is all about adding a Metal Charm to your card so its titled "Charming" and if your anything like me you bought loads of these a couple of years ago when they were very popular and then hardly use then since, I think the problem is creating the link chain to add them to the card, I know I ruined my nails doing it, I sincerely hope you have found a better way of making the chain.
Anyway back to todays Challenge and as always our sponsors for this Challenge are Veronica and Pedro of The Paper Shelter

http://www.thepapershelter.com/index.php?main_page=index

and they are offering a fabulous prize of $30. to spend on their website but this is providing you have used one of their products and that could be either a Image, Backing Paper or even a Printable, but even if you have not they will still give you 3 digi images of your own choice to play with. So you really cannot loose can you? And the choice on their website The Paper Shelter is amazing they are always updating their library so the choices as fabulous and the price of them is really good to.
And for the reveal of my Card.


This image is titled "Connected" and you will find here, I printed her onto white card then used my copic pens to colour her, afterwards I used a circle Nestabilitie die to cut her out and a larger one for the mount using a beige card.
The base card is a 6.50"x 6.50" white card with a first mount of beige card and the paper I have used the backing paper and placed this one the base mount. I then wrapped the large ribbon around the middle and placed my mounted image in the middle.
The sentiment is a Marianne stamp and this was placed on a Marianne label die and stuck across the top left hand corner.
I then created a large bow and attached my metal laptop charm and stuck it across the bottom right hand corner, and to finish of I have used six pearls and placed them in the two opposite corners.
Now that youve seen my card I do hope that you will hop over to The Paper Shelter Challenge Blogspot and see what the rest of the A Team have created for your inspiration and hopefully you to will want to take part in this "Charming" Challenge, dont forget its a metal charm we want to see.
