Totally gorguss dt

We're having a fab challenge on Totally gorjuss this week sponsored by Crafters companion, "STAR", and i'm sure you can interpret this any way you like.  For my entry as a dt member this week it was quite easy as i was asked by one of the mum's at kindergaten to make wands for a childs birthday party, so i made twenty of these little stars and added one of My favorite little Maggies to the shaft of the wand.

I added a large rhinestone brad to the centre of the star and lots of little rhinestone flourishes coming from the centre.  Tilda was colored with my copics and given a going over with some stickles.  I wrapped a thin ribbon around the shaft of the wand and am quite pleased with how its turned out.
Enjoy the weekend
