Sugar Creek Hollow #12 Pearls & Swirls

Happy Pink Saturday!!
I have exciting news!!

Today is my first post as a new Design Team member for one of my favorite challenge blogs.....Sugar Creek Hollow.

The DT there is super sweet, and I love their creations!  So come on over and join us for this week's challenge!

 This week we need to use Pearls and Swirls.  So lets see some pearls & swirls on your Vintage, Shabby Chic or Primitive style paper creations!!

Here is my inspiration piece for this weeks Challenge.

I started out with a tag image that I created in GIMP.  You can find it here.  The sweet blue bird image is from the Graphics Fairy. All the pieces of my tag are die cuts that I created and used the print and cut feature of my Black Cat Cougar (digital cutter)to cut out.  I used my favorite flat back pearls in Champagne, Ranger Pink liquid pearls, ivory pearl sprays and flower pearl trim.  I created some swirls with the liquid pearls, and perfect pearls by Ranger in  perfect copper.  I used a "thank you" stamp with vintage photo distress ink for my sentiment.

 Used my favorite May Art Leaf trim, Pink Mulberry roses and Swirls of gold beading wire to give my tag that shabby chic vintage feel.  I used some Vintage looking Seam binding to make my bow, and added a few paper flourishes that I cut out with my silhouette SD a while back.

I painted the Maya Roads chipboard flourish with Ranger's "Antique linen" distress crackle paint inked with vintage photo. Here you can see the beautiful Clear Crystal Wheat Sprays.  I used a bamboo skewer to curl the ends of the wire part of the wheat sprays.   Here is the back of the card.  You will see I used more of the same embellishments on the back of my tag.

I did add some burgundy roses that I cut from a piece of trim.

Please come and join the challenge!
