Challenge - plain cardstock & stamps

This scrapbook page was inspired by a challenge - use only plain colored card stock, stamps, and pearls! I wasn't at all sure how well I could do with this challenge, but was quite happy with the end result!

As you can see, I DID use my Silhouette to cut the title and mats. I also used a cardmaker punch to frame the focal photo. The border stamp I used was about 5" long and hard to line up exactly. The little red pearls placed at these join points effectively hid the minor variations.
