I hope you are all having a delightful week! I, as you know, am studying like crazy this week. However, I get to have lunch tomorrow with two of my favorite people Joy and Bryan the ScrapGuy! We always have the best time together, so it will be a nice break from studying.
Anyway, on to the card....
I used Papertrey Ink throughout this card. For the focal point, I used one of the new dies that they are selling with my cuttlebug.
The yellow 'pearls' are liquid pearls that matched perfectly. A tip for using liquid pearls: after applying to the paper, thump the back of the paper so that it evens out. It will dry nice and flat when this is done properly.
Ok friends, I am off to study some more for my American History exam. Have I ever told you how much I love history? If I was not going to school to be a graphic designer, I would have majored in History! The art part wins out though. I can't help myself!
Have a great day!

Keep up the studying. They make everyone study things that we won't use no matter what profession. You can do it!
