It might not show too well but I did distress the edge before I added gold (for the HYCCT challenge to tear or distress). I used the closest colors I had for the CC and added my favorite embellishment..a brad TFL!

Sweet card, Polly. Of course, I love your gold edging. ; ) A sentiment probably a good number of us could take to heart. Cute blue quail sitting in his pear tree.

Sooo pretty! Your soft coloring is gorgeous. And just a little shading of color on the background brings everything together so nicely! Always, beautiful cards from you!

How pretty this is, and I love your brad. This is kinda different for you, Polly. The distressed edge with gold looks great.
