I have combined two challenges with this card, using the flower squares from Peggy (and friends) along with the embossed centre image, that I had in that box of 'images that I would get to use one day'!
This card was very easy using 'Textured Texiles' EF (again my favourite) and layering for dimension and texture. I used one flower image in the square and then cut out the second one, chalking it and using 3D tape to attach it. Then of course..the pearls! The original pearls I was planning on using were smaller, I had 4 left and when I went to get the last one with the tweezers I heard a 'ping' and it had gone flying around the room - yet to be found...so I went to the bigger size, hoping they are not too big - what do you think!?! I also used a pearl buckle, another bargain that I hadn't used much...these challenges are so good for that....
Thanks so much for looking, and for your comments, I love reading them!!

Stranger than fiction, have a look at my card...you might have a double take like I did. Love your main image, the embossing is grand and love the dramatic the black gives your creation. Lovely pearls. See you started the fun with the images. Go girl!
