Paper… beautiful patterned paper. I can’t seem to walk past it at the craft store, so many many of them end up on my craft table. And sometimes I even play with them!
A close second to paper are pearls. They have gotten harder to find as other bling products are taking center stage, but my love for them has not diminished. Nope, not a bit.

Lovely – Perfect for the challenge. Great use of your dsp. Love your comment, “Sometimes I even play with them.” As always Susan – beautiful watercoloring on your blossom!
Oh, Susan, I’m not alone, eh? LOL! I can’t either…it’s so tempting (and I think for sure that I have this DP!). I love this card and your DP with great layout, and I love your pearls. I have some but just haven’t used them as well as you. Thanks for the inspiration. I love this flower too. Beautiful card, my friend! (I have been cleaning out my craft room, so I missed this challenge, but I may have to check it out.) Hugs!
Super cute!!! Thank you for joining us at Sister Act, good luck!!! Amy DT
I sure know what you mean about the papers! I always say “no more papers”, but I cannot walk away. I have this pad, too. Love the colors and LOVE how you’ve combined them. Perfect with the inspiration photo. Great sketch, and the Flower Shop flower is so pretty the way you’ve colored it. The pearls are a great addition, too. I don’t think I’ll ever give up my pearls.
And a very pretty combo of those papers too 🙂 I told myself I wasn’t going to buy anymore and then I went to the stamp convention yesterday and ended up bringing more home, this has got to stop,no where for me to store it anymore, such a pretty flower and love the pearls accenting it!
So pretty. Love your mix of papers and pretty pearl flourishes. Love the pretty flower too.
Forgot to say Thanks for sharing with us at Seize the Birthday.
Another beautiful floral creation. The colors and papers are stunning. Love the orange flower and pearls are my favorite too — so elegant!
This is so gorgeous!! I love your combination of papers and colors here!! I’m curious about the look of your flower. Did you do the no-line coloring with your Copics?
Wow your flower is colored beautifully!!
This is fab, thanks for joining us at CPPC xx Jan DT
