I never thought there was too much glitter......I might have been wrong!

Hello Bloggers.......hope you're all well!
I've had a day off today & I ended up in town for most of it looking for a new printer.....got one woooooooooo!
So when I got home I set about making this card, I'm so unsure of it now it's all finished. I never thought you could have too much glitz, I may have been wrong!
The paper is Pink Petticoat, tulip background, tilda with flowing hair & tilda in the garden all samped in memento & colored with pro markers, flowers from hobbycraft & ribbon from my stash........diamond stickles added pretty much everywhere........I think that & as the ribbon is glittery it's just too much.....what do you think? Honest I can take it......
The sentiment on the front says "If mothers were flowers.." & inside "I'd pick you! Happy Mother's Day".
I'm so pleased today is Monday the tv is GREAT......Hollyoaks, Emmerdale, Corrie, Enders, Corrie, Glee & then Hell's Kitchen USA!!! Me watch too much tv.......NEVER! Lol
