Wow!! I saw this Bonus Challenge that Roxi put on the Sketch Challenge and I just had to try it!! The layout comes from Beate's blog -- you have to go check it out!!
I call this my "first time" card, not because it's my first card, but I tried and used a bunch of things on here for the first time!! See those cool big silver brads -- just opened the package tonight!! See that scallop rectangle (or at least some of it...) well, my friend laderme let me borrow her Marvy Scallop punches to punch out a bunch... but this is the first time I actually used one (and I borrowed the punches back in July!!). And see those awesome swirls.... just bought them today at my LSS -- they are gel-a-tins and I love them!! And finally, that awesome color - pomegranate, yup, first time I've used the color !!!
Now, all that being said... the card kinda started taking on a mind of it's own as I got working on it. I am finding it a bit on the "busy" side... but oh well, it was a ton of fun to use so many new items all on one card!!

I think your card is great, not too busy at all, and I generally keep stuff really simple, lol. I think you did a beautiful job, and I love the use of pomegranate, one of my fav colors. Very well done!!
