JUGs Challenge #58...

A short post with my card for the current JUGs challenge.  This week was a sketch and a really fun one, too.  When I started my card I had such high hopes for it, but it just didn't turn out quite the way I was wanting it to turn out.  Oh well... I guess we all have "clinkers" now and then (although sometimes I think I have more "clinkers" then most people!).   The colors of the card are very pretty in real life, but just don't translate well when I try to photograph it.   I used some patterned paper from the Webster's Pages 2009 holiday collection.  Hoping I can pick up the 2010 holiday collection.

Thanks for taking a peek....

Supplies:  Cardstock:  PTI Vintage Cream; PP:  Websters Pages; Stamp:  Stampin Up!; Dies:  PTI; Pearl Flourish Zva Creative; Ink:  Ranger Tattered Rose Distress ink; VersaMagic Sahara Sand; Stampin Up! Modern Label punch

Listen, here, Rosebud! The only thing CLINKIN' around here are the ice cubes in my glass as I toast to YOU and this lovely, elegant, perfectly pearled piece of holiday loveliness! {So there! hee hee} Seriously, Rose - this is WONDERFUL! I love you and your distressed edging and layered DELIGHTS! Excellent job!

I so disagree about your clinkers comment, Rosemary - I always enjoy seeing your creations! I love the femininity of this one with the soft colors and the beautiful pearl swish.
