Uplifting Occasion!

Another new Penny Black card from me (finally got around to doing something with my images I'd coloured in)! It's a proper girly card, and if you look at the word under the picture you'll see the title of one of the best girl's night out tunes by Cyndi Lauper!! (And there's another song lyric above the image, but not one I'd expect to hear on a night out!)
The image is called "Uplifting Occasion" which I love!! Such a funny picture and I've coloured it with my Promarkers:

I've used five different papers overall (that must be a record for me)! The bottom layer of polkadot paper came with a Forever Friends decoupage kit, the butterfly/floral is Dovecraft Glamour pack, the text paper is DCWV Text Prints paper stack, and the pink paper on the base card is Papermania Sweet Nothings, and the grey piece is Dovecraft Charcoal Prints. I used the Xcut heart border punch to made the propping-up doodah on the base card. I've made the wire word myself as it's for one of my closest friends from school. Then just a few heart/star gems and a peel-off to finish.
