Here's my card for today's challenge of using beads. This card is so much prettier IRL...the Martha Stewart micro beads are shiny silver but look like a fungus growing in this picture !! ha ha
Love the Wildflower meadow stamp and EF. Went for a monchromatic color scheme to showcase the beads and pearls.

I know how hard it is to photograph metallics and sparkle - so I am sure that this is even prettier in real life but it certainly doesn't look like a fungus on the screen either. I hadn't realised, till I looked at this, that there is an embossing folder to go with the stamp - it adds real style!

A beautiful shade of blue to put with all those pearled beads.

It's frustrating when the photo fails to do justice to the actual card, isn't it? I'm sure that this is a stunner IRL - it's pretty even as a "fungus", lol!

I like a girl with a sense of humor....fungus! First I think you're very clever to use the beads on the embossed flowers! It really does look great on the screen, but I'm sure it does shine more in real life. Great take on this challenge. tfs
