613 Avenue Create ATG/Twist Challenge

Hi there friends!
Rachelle here and I am excited to share my second
 DT inspiration along with my team at


This week's challenge
 "Anything That Goes."- ATG
The twist is Optional:
Create a Stylish/Elegant Card or Other Creation.

Here is my take for this challenge:

"Hello!"

More Views:


I used the twist for this design. I love creating cards with elegance 
that means using lace, pearls, ribbon, and rhinestones.
That brings out the Shabby Chic girl inside me.


I used my spectrum noir markers to apply the colors. Then added
stickles to bring out the pearls.

This week's Sponsor is
