Stamptacular Sunday; Sketch Saturday; Anyone for Anya; Pile It On

Hi all!

I am entering my card into the following challenges:

Stamptacular Sunday's challenge #149 was to use either diamonds or pearls. I chose to use diamonds (rhinestones) because they are my absolute favorite embellishment, not to mention my favorite precious stone in real life as well! If I could afford it I'd probably have a jewel box full of beautiful earrings and tennis bracelets.

Sketch Saturday's sketch for week #192 gave me the sketch used on this card.

Anyone for Anya's challenge was a recipe challenge. We were to use three different papers, two different embellishments and one image. I used an XO print, a light blue with tiny flowers print and a striped red print for my choice of 3 papers. For my two embellishments, I chose to use rhinestones and dew drops. For my image I used Tulip Monkey by CC Designs.

Pile It On's challenge #5 was to make a "just because" project.

Here's my card:
