I wanted the focal point to be the Digi so no fancy die cuts used. For some of the rectangles simple enough I used Cricut George and Basic Shapes. Used a corner punch on all the edges. Used purple & white glitter on the digi image. Heat embossed the sentiment. Used a Martha Stewart doily lace edge punch. For Pearls I used liquid Pearls & a Pearl stick pin. Punched 2 images of a flower. Used foam circles to put 2 images of punched flower together to give it a 3D look . Added glitter to punched flower. Added flower to Pearl stick pin. Tied a ribbon to Pearl stick pin.
