The playoff games Saturday and last night were really great exciting games. Congrats to NC Tar Heels.  None of my favorites made it  to the end but they were in the final four

This card is one I saw Jennifer McGuire make with perfect pearls. It is not "perfect" as I got a silver line around the flower but it came out okay. I should have saved the other side because it is a boo boo. I stamped the leaves upside down and didn't realize it until I was done with the card. This is a new Altenew stamp, perfect pearls and nuvo drops. I am going to post it on NBUS. Be kind to one another.

IT'S HERE! April 1-11, 2017

What a gorgeous flower & card, Brenda! I've been meaning to try that technique as I was totally enthralled with Jennifer's video--maybe now I'll actually do it! Hugs, Greta PS--really wanted Gonzaga to win, but they should still be very proud of their year!

How cool that you got right on that technique from JM, Brenda! I have that one bookmarked to try, especially now after seeing how beautiful yours turned out! I love the blue color and the sediment! Thanks for sharing about your boo-boo and joining in my NBUS Challenge #11! Love and hugs, Darnell (That was a heart-breaker for the Zags, but my goodness, how cool that they went all the way to the top this year!)

Oh Brenda that is fabulous, I love that shimmery flower on the blue. Off to check out JM's technique.

Oh this is so pretty! I saw that JMcQ video, and I tried. My efforts were nothing so good as what you did. I had tried a similar bit with the gold & red poinsettias, but ended up just going with embossing, cause it looked so bad! You did good! TFS & Hugs

Wow Brenda, this turned out great! I have this flower set but haven't tried this technique. I need too because this is gorgeous! I didn't know the leaves went a certain way, and yours doesn't look upside down to me at all! Love that sentiment too, its perfect on this card. Hugs, Brenda
