Jewels!

2 in 1 challenges for this one. First, wednesday stampers asked for diamonds so I kind of had this in mind, then today the DCM dare is:

This weeks theme is brought to you by Lythan
Song without words
I would like you to create a card inspired by a song or a carol - it could be for Christmas or not! (you may have got all your Christmas cards done by now...) BUT there is a twist. the words of the song are NOT to be seen on the front of the card. You could leave it to us to guess! Have fun!
Hopefully you can guess the song I have based this on, I will leave a clue under the photo!
I was going to do 'When Santa got stuck up the chimney' but my chimney was pants so I abandoned the idea of doing a Christmas card. I was going to do Rudolph but I used my stags head yesterday and didn't want to show the same stamp twice in two days. Anyway, when I thought about this card that I did make, I kept singing the song so I had to use it! I know exactly who to give this card to, a friend who just loves her jewels!
Clue: Shirley Bassey
Supplies: White and navy cardstock, Basic Grey Lily Kate paper, Navy velvet paper, Navy organza ribbon from Ribbon Oasis, Punched out flowers - Woodware punch, Papermania 'diamonds' adhesive stones and wire from my stash.

    What a fab card! Diamonds are forever? perhaps - but could be others - I suppose the Shirley Bassey is a clue (although at first I could only think of Big Spender - yes, I suppose it could be that)
