Card made with Coredinations Black Magic

Hello everyone.

Yesterday I decided to have an assault on tidying my craft room - even my cupboard was in a state of disarray!  So I set to and got the cupboard sorted and then turned my attention to the rest of the room.  It was starting to look quite reasonable but I just couldn't resist the urge to make a card!  

A while ago I purchased some Black Magic Coredinations card from Crafters Companion and it has been sitting there ever since because I couldn't decide how to use it.  I don't usually make many black cards.  While tidying my craft room yesterday I found some toppers I had previously printed but never got round to using - and they had worked their way to the bottom of a drawer.  As my printer is still poorly-sick I decided it was time to use some of these toppers and found one I thought would go very nicely with the Black Magic Coredinations card.

Here's the card I made

The topper is a pyramage image from one of my Debbi Moore cds which I mounted onto a piece of black glitter paper, and the card base is one from my stash (I think I got some free with something else I bought).  The ribbon, flower and gems are also from my stash.  The red border is also Black Magic Coredinations card which I turned over to the red side and then crimped, and the other piece of red background was something else I found lurking in the bottom of a drawer and I think was originally printed from a Joanna Sheen cd. 

So what does everyone else think - does the Coredinations card fit with this image?

Thank you for visiting my blog.

    Thanks Jacki and Louise. I usually do that with card or paper I really like Jacki - look at it and put it back again! I tried to match the embossing to the pattern Louise so that it all kind of "blended" together.
