 Happy Labor Day Everyone!! I hope you are all having a great holiday weekend!!  Today I will not be sharing a Stamp and Create Product Spotlight but I will be sharing this months new challenge!! Instead of the normal Product Spotlight sale, Lacey at Stamp & Create will be having a Labor Day sale!!  So click on over and check it out.  Everything is 10% off!! Use the code Laborday for your discount code.

This month's challenge is to use pearls on your creation!!  How fun and easy is that.
You must use a NEW card (no back linking please), and you can enter up to once a week. You are welcome to enter cards, tags, scrapbook layouts, 3-D projects, etc. You may use any stamp...it does not need to be a stamp Stamp and create carries.
The prize this week is a $20 gift certificate to Stamp and Create

Here is my creation using pearls:


For my card I used the Midnight Madness sketch, some glittered embossed paper from my scrap stash and Green at Heart paper from Basic Grey.  The image Angelica Fairy is from Wags n Whiskers (available at Stamp and Create). The image is framed with  standard large circle nestabilities from Spellbinders  I added mandarin orange cameo prima roses, "snow" kaiser craft pearls, and champagne ribbon (I used the bow easy to create the bow).  The image is colored with copics and glitter was added to the wings.  The edge was created with an EK Success punch.

challenges:
Midnight Madness: sketch
Crafty Den Anything goes challenge~ say it with flowers
Sentimental Sundays~ recipe- 2 dps, 1 solid color and 3 embellishments (ribbon, pearls and flowers) and a sentiment of course
One stitch at a time~ butterflies, bling or blooms
