The Sugar Bowl Challenge 11 sketch by Kathy

The challenge over at the Sugar Bowl was a sketch by Kathy and you were to include pearls.I decided to use my Basic Grey Wisteria pad instead of just looking at it and another Gorjuss girl too.Again I'm not quite happy with this,can't decide what it is (think I'm never happy with cards....lol).The flowers I made by punching out the Wisteria papers and really crumpling them up.I think it gives a really good effect.(distressed...lol).I did some recently for a scrapbook LO and everyone thought they were fabric.
I rotated the sketch and have also included the pearls.Both in the centre of the flowers and also in the top left corner.I'm just back from Body Combat so off to relax for the rest of the evening and maybe finish another card that's nearly done.
