Magical Birthday

Hello, everyone!  It's time for a new challenge from the Creative Moments Challenge blog.  The theme is: Fantasy.  I am using an image from one of our fabulous sponsors: Sheepski Designs.

 Here is my card:

Isn't this unicorn just gorgeous??!!  Andrea Norris is the artist behind Sheepski Designs and she is very talented!  This purple watercolor look paper was on my desk (my daughter had just returned it along with some other stuff as she was working on cleaning out her room) and I really wanted to use it.  So, I pulled out some other papers from the same pack and went with a soft, magical, purple color scheme.  The vertical layer is a nice pearlescant paper and has a beautiful sheen to it.  You can see that a little bit in the photo below as well as the gold sparkle pen I used on the unicorn's horn.  I finished everything off with some large gold sequins and some elegant gold die cuts.  I had forgotten about both of these dies and I was very excited to pull them out and use them again.
