I used my shimmery invention shown on the UW graduation for my daughter...unfortunately it does not shown up well in the card photograph. Each piece, including the picture were sprayed with the Bath & Body Works-Magic in the Air/ Diamond Shimmer Mist, which gives a full, rich shimmer and very noticeable in real life. After spraying pieces, I dried them with my heat tool.

This must be shimmering beautiful IRL. How creative to use something out of the art supply realm to give such a neat effect. Your card is precious with the little nurse-in-training.

This is so pretty. I love the way you did the corners of the card base and all the scalloped edges on the card. Great idea to ad shimmer to your card too. I'll have to look for that the next time I'm in BB&B.

I'm very intrigued about the Bath and Body spray, Charlene. Does it have a smell to it? Very nice card and a very meaningful one too. I read the reason on your blog and do hope the surgery is a success.
