This week at
it's Brenda's turn to choose the challenge and she's saying, "Pearls, Sequins & Gems, Oh My!" which means she wants to see those projects with....well....pearls, sequins & gems.
This is what I did.....
This was one of those cards that didn't even come close to what I had originally thought I was going to do.....and that's okay, because I do like how it turned out. I was planning on being A Very Good DT Member and use pearls, sequins and gems on my card but it was just pearls in the end. But look at that splatter! Pretty good, if I do say so myself. I will also say that I had nothing to do with it and it's just an aspect of the patterned paper. Did I make you jealous for a moment? lol
Why not give our challenge a go this week and join us? And, if you'd like more inspiration, be sure to check out what the Girlfriends have made.
