This is my card for today's Ways To Use It challenge - to use pearls. I love using pearls so this was great!
I used Tamara's Thursday Card Sketch #71 for my layout: http://sketchesbytamara.blogspot.com...sketch-71.html
I stamped the image and sentiment with TH Walnut Stain DI onto watercolor paper and embossed with clear EP. Sponged around the panels with Antique Linen DI and a little Going Gray (did the same to my DP for the background). I watercolored the main image with markers and an Aquapainter. I added some taffeta ribbon that I dyed with my Mellow Moss marker. I also dyed a couple of Pretties flowers with a Baja Breeze marker I made from reinker and a Fantastix. Sponged a little Going Gray and Mellow Moss onto the flowers to soften the look a little. Added pearls to my flower centers and tucked in a couple of branches from my MS punch.
Thanks, Julia, for another fun challenge and Tamara, for another great sketch to work with!
TFL!
