This card was meant for four challenges: Today's CC233 (Read Red, Chocolate Chip, Kraft), yesterdays CAS29 Inspiration Challenge ( I was inspired by this crimson cross stitch bag- http://www.anthropologie.com/antro/c...AGS-BAGS&push] ), Flourishes Timeless Tuesday Challenge to use pearls, and Mercy's MTSC35 sketch.
I used Bella Blooms set since the handbag really reminded me of this set. I stamped it in red and added two layers. The edges of the flower are sponged in Chocolate chip. I wanted to keep it CAS but Flourishes challenge to add pearls made me do it (tee hee! I love pearls!).
Stamps: Bella Blooms
Paper: Parisian Breeze, Choc Chip, White
Accessories: Top Note die, Fiskars punch, circle nesties, pearls, red ribbon, Swiss dots embossing folder

Wowza is this ever gorgeous! I love the way you sponged around the flower edges in chocolate chip. It gives the flower such dimension and yes, I love the pearls too. I would have done the same thing. Every card needs a little bling! TFS
