Sequin or Pearls?

By
What will you choose - or will you go for both? I ask because this is the new challenge over on 52 {Christmas} Card Throwdown


Here is my card - I chose pearls


Materials - Stampin' Up
Stamps: Christmas Blessings, Petite Pairs
Ink: Smoky Slate, Certain Celery, Riding Hood Red
Card Stock: Whisper White, Riding Hood Red, Certain Celery
Accessories: Border Punch, Word Window and Modern Label Punches, Basic Pearls

Hope you are all having a great weekend - I'm decorating. It's a job I hate but since my husband's illness he has not been up to such jobs (hmmmmm) so it;s down to me - best get back to it then! See you soon - Jacqueline xx
