Vicky Gould challenged the Stampin B design team to make long-tall cards with no stamping. This was a challenge for me because this is not my first choice when it comes to card shapes or sizes. This card also qualifies for yesterday's WT228 charm challenge. I made a flower charm using a piece of chipboard, pink beads and pearls and wire. I hung my charm on a pink ribbon. So far no stamps... I thought that pink was girly so I wanted to have a lacy card. I hand cut a scalloped edge around the card base. I used my paper piercer to make the holes for the lace. I punched four little flowers and added pearls. I punched a fifth little flower added a bigger pearl and added a bigger punched flower behind it. Still no stamps... I felt it needed a sentiment: can't use stamps, hard to attach vellum so that you don't see the adhesivem didn't want to use computer this time... rubons?-the rubons that I have didn't seem apropriate... so I used a sticker from the dollar store I think... I have had it so long I forgot where I got it. You should join in on the stampin B challenges: http://stampinbsdesignteam.blogspot.com/

Love your pink and glittering, scrolled paper. That is a wonderful charm you made. You cut the scalloped border? Wow..I'm sure I would have ruined that.
Gorgeous card!

Well done. Love your non-stamped card. Who needs stamps when you can cut, punch and pierce. Lovely card MariLynn! TFS :0)
