Grinning Skulls, the glamorous kind, of course!

Well, it had been a while since I used my Creative Play Stamps Skulls 1, so I got them out. I sure have fun with this silly set, I always like to add as much bling as possible, and I seem to use Basic Gray's Two Scoops with them a lot. I stamped this one in VersaMark on Whisper White and embossed in SU! pink. I put Crystal Stickles in the eye sockets, this gal has stars in her eyes! I added dew drops all around the edge of the nestie circle, and layered it onto a nestie scallop cut from Basic Black. The black circle has Cotton Candy Stickles dots on each scallop. That's the whole point of the scallops, right? They are just an excuse for more sparkle, am I right, or am I right? The grungeboard skull is covered with Art Institute's Blue Whale glitter, it's so pretty, and it goes well with this BG paper and the teal card stock. The ric rac is by SU!, and as a final touch, I pierced around the panel and added Stardust pen to the edges. If you need a new pad or refill, they are all 20% off at CPS until the 11th!
