Mix It Up Monday - Pins or Pearls

[Joy Hadden]

Good Morning!  I love pearls! In fact, I wear pearls every day-even when I'm gardening.  The lady who leads our exercise group says she's never had anyone workout in pearls except me.  So today on Mix It Up Monday -- SHOW ME YOUR PEARLS.  You can use any kind or any color of pearls - even those on pins.  Gina K has several sizes here.

Here is my card

I used the stamp from Inside and Out and Gina K Ivory, Sweet Corn and Green Apple card stocks with Gina K 5mm pearls.

Please create and upload a new project for this challenge.  There is no combining of Stamp TV challenges alowed to be eligible to win a prize.  However, you can combine it with challenges outside of Stamp TV.  And remember you don't have to use Gina K Designs stamps, but if you do your name will go into the drawing twice!

You have until Sunday, February 5th at 8m Central to upload your entry.

Use the keyword STV12mon2 for your tag for this challenge.

I can't wait to see your Pins and Pearls!

This is gorgeous, I love pearls, but do not wear them :).

I love your card and what a fabulous way to use the pearls too. Hmmmm! I will have to see if I own some pearls now so I can do a challenge entry as well. Maybe later today.

What a pretty card and a fun story.  I would be worried about messing them up or losing them when gardening or exercising.

OH NO ...been packing up my dungeon to repaint and reorganize. Which box has the pearls or the perfect pearls paint? Might have to pass on this challenge!

What a lovely card Joy.  Thanks for hosting our MIUM challenge.  What a coincidence that I just wore a double strand of pearls yesterday :).  I made two cards mixing up the colors but the same design.  Since I had to line everything up using the stamp a ma jig I figured it was easy to make two.  Here's my card.

Hi, Joy, your card is precious! The first word that comes to my mind is 'dainty' which would be you working out in pearls! My mother and I love pearls, and I have hers now in remembrance of her. Great challenge idea, can't wait to see all the pearls in the gallery :)
