This card is for today's Ways to Use it Challenge(WT311)! We are supposed to use some gray or silver. I used some MME Totally Girl dp that has distressed gray edges and a few gray tones. I distressed the edges that gives a deep gray tone shading. I also colored and used gray to keep my flower more white than pink. I also incorporated a silver doily and silver pearls to add more gray. I tried to go springy and non-gloomy withy gray yet made a Christmas card!
My card is also for ODBD Stamping In Time Challenge(SNTODBD29)! We are starting on our Christmas cards for 2011!

Betty, your cards are always so full of beautiful, delicate detail and this is no exception. The lacy borders are lovely, but it is the swirly, leafy, gorgeous poinsettia that is a real attention getter.
