My items are standard size cards using the Ivy Lane Card Making WOTG.  I love the gold shimmer trim (and guess what?  It will be a new shimmer trim in the upcoming catalog!)  Anyway, after working with this kit over the weekend I decided to show what else can be done with the kit.  Also these cards are just so glittery and beautiful that pictures can't capture how sparkling they really are.  You can never have enough glitter, right?
