CCEE and Twisted Sister challenge

I challenged the CCEE Stampers to make a card with your favorite sketch and add brads to dress it up. I failed my own challenge. I forgot the brads and added pearls. We would love for you to join the challenge and show us your favorite sketch. This also qualifies for the Twisted Sisters challenge this week, Sylvia challenged us to make a monochromatic card.

Thanks for dropping by and taking a look at my card.

  1. You forgot your own challenge, LOL! Well, I guess it's easy to understand when you've got so much going on at the moment. And the pearls go with the nostalgic retro feel of that old telephone :D.

  3. Cool card, Shirley. I really like the paper on the frame around that old phone. I forgot the brad, too...went back and made one work. Added some pearls, too.

  4. That's really funny that you forgot the brads! You could have told us that the pearls are brads (and we would have believed you!!). I love the monochromatic look, and the lace is a nice additiion. Regards and best wishes to Tig as he recovers. hugs, GF!

  6. I had left a comment earlier, but on checking on all the CCEE cards, I see some did not make it....go figure!

    I love your black and white beauty, Shirt - would not have noticed the brads if you hadn't mentioned it!

  8. We'll forgive you for using pearls instead of brads. We can always pretend there are legs on those pearls!!! I do like the black-and-white color combo!

  9. Shirt,
    I love your pretty and elegant card. Black/white is the epitome of elegance - no matter. Your telephone is awesome on the pretty circles; the lace is beautiful and the corner die with pearls is perfect!
