Stop by and check out what they have created and join in on the challenge. Challenge #11 is a Color Challenge, Pink and White, NO SQUARE AND OR RECTANGLE CARDS and must use lots of bling and or pearls.

 

Our lovely sponsor for this challenge is Pizzazz Aplenty and I used Pink Gems and White Pearls from Pizzazz Aplenty.

Pizzazz Aplenty began with only a bit of bling and some ribbon, but in the last few months, we've added so much more... from cardstock to cello bags, as well as charms, stick pins, brads, buttons, cords, twines, laces, and over 20 colors in flatback pearls and rhinestones.  The newest additions are teardrop pearls, button stick pins, leaf pins, and heart pins, resin cameos, flowers and butterflies.  Please stop by for a look at our store: Pizzazz Aplenty
Remember, there's no such thing as too much bling!
