Thank you Max...

Max at Max's Craft Creations has been having a little clear out for a little while now and I was lucky enough to be one of the winners of her blog candy. I received some Perfect Pearls, a pack of misters and a Dawn Bibby DVD so that I knew what to do with the goodies. Isn't that brilliant? I was just over the moon. Thank you so much Max and I'm really pleased you liked the thank you card.

Well I had a play last weekend and this is one of the cards I made - another will be on my blog shortly. Haven't got a photo of it yet. The flowers in the vase image is a stamp by Magenta. I stamped it on to the brown card using the Perfect Pearls Medium pad and then dusted the image with antique gold. I added an extra flowers with pearl centres to add interest.

The main image is matted on to a background created using core'rdinations cardstock embossed and sanded using Swiss Dots folder. Brads, peel offs and a tag add were added to embellish the card.

As the challenge at Cute Card Thursday is to use any kind of flowers I think my Perfect Pearl ones will count.

PS: - I think there is still time to join in the fun at Max's but you will have to be quick!!

You're very welcome Ann ... and I didn't just like your Thank You card ... I loved it!
Can't wait to see what other beauties you'll make once you've learned all the different techniques of using Perfect Pearls ... and knowing you as I do, you'll probably discover a few new ones along the way LOL! You'll be unstoppable!!
Perfect Pearls + Ann = Perfect Match
