Penny Black Saturday Challenge - Touchy Feely

This week at the Penny Black Saturday Challenge, we've gone all:

'Touchy Feely'
We want to see lots of texture on your cards.

Our sponsor for this challenge is:


and the prize is a $20 voucher to spend in their online store!

I used embossing, lace, distressing and pearls to create texture on my card. The papers I used are from the '29th Street Market' collection by My Mind's Eye...the reverse sides are all plain. I embossed them using my Cuttlebug 'D'Vine Swirls', 'Kassie's Brocade' and 'Victoria' folders, then sanded the surfaces to reveal the white core. The lace is from Hobbycraft, the pearls are from Wild Orchid Crafts...oh, and the wee mousie is called 'Gifts for You!'.

I'm also entering this card into the following challenges:
