I loved the MMSC11 sketch design and thought it would be a breeze, but it took awhile to get it where I wanted it. Then, on the DDIC8 challenge, I didn't have the 3 vases like the inspiration photos, but had my recent hostess set, Country Morning (SU), that had 3 water vases, so I figured that will work. I wanted to add a little more green, but couldn't fit it in anywhere else.
I used crystal effects on the glass jars to make them shiny, diamond stickles on the prima flowers and gold pearls for the frame with a specialty button in the center.
Thanks so much for taking the time to look and if you have a chance, let me know what you think!! Have a great weekend!!

Hi Pam! What a pretty card! I really love all the different techniques you have used here. The border punches, the textures, the buttons, ribbon, piercing... It all works so well together and created such a work of art! Have a great weekend.
Oh my gosh, this is so pretty. I just love the background paper!! That flower button and the beads...just perfect. Your cards are always so beautiful. Thanks so much for playing with us at the MMSC. Hope you will play again next week.
